I have a totally clean vanilla, unmodded FNV GOTY Steam install and can't get it to launch a New Game under Windows 10. I just get the "Program has stopped working" crash to desktop. I last played it when I had Win8 but (like many of you) have come back to FNV after my (brief) FO4 experience and I am on Win10 now.
1. I have verified the Steam Install.
2. I have cleared the .inis and allowed the Launcher to make new ones.
3. The Launcher shows the splash screens, the Ranger with his pistol and the menus.
4. Selecting New Game starts the intro movie.
5. After the movie (or pressing Esc), the game attempts to load the official ESPs for a fraction of a second
6. Windows pops up the "Program has stopped working" box and "searches" for a solution.
I wondered if it was anything to do with old DirectX files or Games for Windows Live (which is discontinued).

Any thoughts?
