I've had New Vegas for quite some time now and have had very minimal issues with it. However, today after re-installing me game, it crashes before reaching the first splash screen. I have tried running it in Windows XP compatibility mode, but the crash still happens. I've tried the d3d9.dll 'fix' but that didn't help either. This is a brand new clean install with no mods. I've tried to verify the game cash integrity through Steam 3 times, only to have that crash keep happening. Does anybody know how to fix this, or am I stuck with not being able to play New Vegas?
