So what I’ve done so far is:
* uninstalled/reinstalled/scanned an unholy amount of times (both the game and [battle.net](https://battle.net) including files)
* tried additional command line arguments,
* uninstalling overlay software (like turning off NVIDIA’s overlay, and GeForce NOW, Windows and Xbox game bar)
* updating my drivers, (even though, according to Device Manager the required ones are already installed)
* running EVERY process as admin with Win 8 compatibility, 640×480, disable fullscreen, compatibility troubleshoot, etc etc
* turned my MSI Afterburner overclocking off
* setting high priority in task manager
And still it freezes in the intro screen requiring Task Manager to force close it. I’m at my wit’s end. Can anyone help?
