I don't know what's up, I played this emulator months ago, then I went to play again but it just doesn't load, it crashes on launch, can't do anything, I tried compatibility mode, installed vicual c++ 2013, I have a pretty powerful pc, so it's not the pc.
Are you using the DirectX 9 backend, have you installed the Windows 10 Creators update, and are you using the Riva Tuner Statistics Server or something that includes it (e.g. MSI Afterburner)?
If so, pop on over to Guru3d and install the new 7.0.0 version of RTSS, because the old one causes crashes with the new version of Windows. If not, I have no idea.
I have this issue as well.
I originally had an older 1.3.x build, but it would crash after I try to launch it.
When i launch 1.4, it crashes after a few seconds too.
I use Windows 10, and it updated on April 7th so it had whichever build was available at the time.
In my PC it shows that I am using
Version 1607
OS Build 14393.953
I don't have RTSS, and my video card is NVidia GTX 970M with NVidia being at the latest update.
Windows 10 LTSB 64bit on Nvidia 1060 with Graphic Driver 381.65
Windows 10 LTSB 64bit on Intel HD Graphics 530 Driver 21.20.16.4534
Unsure what build before the windows updates below.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 / x86 10.0.40219 - KB2565063
Versions 1.4 and 1.3 worked fine until the following Windows updates...
