[QUOTE="enduser2941, post: 106056, member: 1901"] Hey guys, Not sure what happened here. I was able to play the PC version with out issue for a the first while I was testing things out, however, recently I have been having a problem. It seems to have all started this way. I had not loaded Steam or any Steam apps in a number of weeks. Last night, I attempted to open Steam and there was some kind of update. During that update, my entire PC crashed. When that happened, Win8 went through it's paces of saving all pertinent information to sent to MS, and then rebooted. When it came back up, I reopened Steam and Steam when ahead and grabbed all it's needed files and updated just fine. However, now when I attempt to opened the glorious Pinball Arcade, I get the following error.... in a Steam dialog box, "Pinball Arcade failed to start (error code 80)." I can however, launch the Configuration Utility with no issue and make any changes there, and the current settings are as follows.. Window Resolution = 1920 X 1080 Window Mode = Full Screen Post Processing = Off Anti-Aliasing = 12x I have tried setting it to default, no change, still fails to start. Here is what I have tried... While in Steam, in my library, I have tried right clicking on Pinball Arcade> properties> Local Files> Verify Integrity of Game Cache. It goes through and validates the files and finds no problem. I have tried to delete all local content and then having it re-install the game, but that doesn't help either. I have no issues open any other games, just this one. Machine Stats Quad Core Intel 3.2Ghz 8GB RAM Windows 8 Steam API v012 Steam Package Version 1379786203 / 1379786203 Well guys, I am truly at a loss here. Again, even though I had that PC crash, during the initial Steam update, Steam has since fully updates, and no other games or any part of Steam are having issues. The OS recovered from the crash just fine, and nothing other then my beloved Pinball Arcade is having any problems, I have essentially re-installed Pinball Arcade through Steam, but still no such luck.
