Featured Replies

Launch game in windowed mode

look in upper left hand corner of window

see pillars of eternity (not responding)

// maybe it responds and maybe not // 

open task manager

see steam.exe +/- 30k k

see steamwebhelper +/- 4k k

see another steam webhelper +/- 30k k

maybe see more steamwebhelpers

end steam.exe with task manager (end process)

end PoE  same way if needed

 

[edit] end any lingering steamwebhelpers with end process if they do not close with steam.exe

launch PoE

sign back into steam

click play

look upper left hand corner of window

Pillars of Eternity (better look fast cause game will now open real fast)

 

If you have a slow launch

Black screen on launch with or without audio

try this it may help you

 check for multiple steam webhelpers every so often just for good house keeping

 

I have now started terminating steam via end process and re-logging on every new launch of the game
