OK , go to OPTIONS in PRlauncher and under Video tab put your resolution into custom resolution field and also under Global tab deselect "View Intro Movie" , apply the changes and test it !

Need help here guys. The BETA worked, but i had a problem that PR didnt seem to run on my graphics card. It ran on the one integrated in my notebook. I tried to force the use of the proper video card in Nvidia control panel, but it didnt work. Other games recognizes and runs on my Nvidia card however.

Try disabling your onboard graphics through the BIOS?

So lets fix your startup crash first !
Run the game in windowed mode and see if it shows any error !

Delete "Project reality" folder in your documents , then run the launcher and make a new offline profile (don't import the old one) ! let's make sure its not connections problem !

Did you changed anything in Nvidia control panel ??! if yes , reset them to Default !
Lower your graphic settings in PRlauncher
Run PRBF2.exe and PRlauncher.exe as an administrator and in compatibility mode for XP
Add THIS profile
