Would love to give the game a go...

... except I can't seem to change any of the graphics options without the game crashing.

Try to go full-screen... EL freezes then crashes.

Try to change the resolution... EL freezes then crashes.

Try to change the font... EL freezes then crashes.



... and so on.

I'm running on a more than capable system (64 bit dual-core CPU, 4 gigs ram, 8800 GT video card... up to date drivers, etc) so it's not that I can't run it.

I just can't modify it visually in any way without it freezing and then crashing.



Anything anyone could suggest?

It problably has something to do with your shaders. I had the same problem with pirates of the carribean online and the game kept crashing simply because my system didn't support the shader used for the shadows. So I just turned the shadows off and the game was running fine (except for the lag-outs I got when I tried to board a ship 80% of the time).

Yeah so its most likely something miniscule like that. I know my computer is good enough to play next-gen graphic games (I've played some), but at times I can't play certain game with even runescape type graphics because they have a feature my card doesn't support, either the shader level is .1 too high or something either way it won't play.
