Kev579 0 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Hi folks this is my first post so constructive criticism please. OK so this is the deal I start up my steam, click DIRT 3 and hit play, then a little square that says DIRT 3 pops up, then splash screen and crash, I've been n contact with the support site and sent them a DXDiag file they told me I had two sound cards active (I'm only using onboard sound no extra cards) did any of you have the same issue, and if so how did you resolve the issue? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

justbiglee 1 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Sounds like a GFWL thing, if you re-install the GFWL client it should work. http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/Live/PC/DownloadClient Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, the store is off for everybody but the client still works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

justbiglee 1 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 In that case I'd suggest sending an email to custserv@codemasters.com with some details about your rig and they should be able to help out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Evilsmurf 91 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 You could try updating you're mobo sound driver's, had more than my fair share of issues with onboard sound and games. Particularly assus boards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
