    Hi all I have a strange problem ever since rf2 has been out im unable to start the game. I get the menu to load single/muliplayer/developer but when I click on any of them I get the splash screen but then nothing happens. Ive checked in the task manager but nothing is there. I can play rf1 fine but just rf2 wont do anything. I need to just see the cars on spinner as I need to paint my cars for upcoming online league season.

    hope someone can help me out

    Cheers
    Chris

    When you click on the singleor multiplayer what exactly happens?
    You get a splash screen and then it just closes or hangs there or black screen or some error?

    Did you try a clean install (not update) of the latest build (134)?

    Trying to narrow the issue, try to reinstall the DirectX components.

    Go in Support/DirectX and execute DXSETUP.exe.

    I tried that still no joy :(

    I am on a laptop but I only want to get to the main menu when I paint my cars for a league. rFactor 1 works fine I can even drive on track. I know someone with same specs but he can use rF2 fine
