Hello, today I downloaded a new game, Saint's Row 2. I waited to get this game for so long and this is what happens... when I start playing, I start a new game. I played with the tutorial, and without it. With the tutorial - game crashes when I kill the guard that has a pistol, without it - when I break the second doors (after I beat ~4 guards). Can someone help me? The error exeption code is 0xc0000005, the same code was when my CS:S was crashing, (shaderapidx9.dll or something) PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!

Update your graphic card drivers.

Then maybe you have not updated DirectX?

Maybe you can tell me what's wrong, give a list of suggestions what should I do, and i'll try all of them...

As you are showing me that the problem as to do with shaderapid9x.dll or w/e - I feel it has nothing to do with the game, perhaps.

Which graphic card you are using? Maybe its not compatible with the game.

There might be some type of driver conflicts, but that usually bring up BSOD.

So all I can say is that you have no problems with the game (Like corrupt game data)...It has to do something with your drivers, or you have a system that does not match the game's requirements.

All right, I searched on google for a while, only to find out that you have problems with STEAM, nothing else.

Here are the search results...I am sure you can fix it now!
