Just bought Witcher 3 last night after finally putting together my new build, unfortunately I'm now having a problem even getting to start a new game.
Every time I launch the game, it sends me to the opening dev credits, and if it sits there long enough will freeze the computer entirely and force me to hard restart. Now, if I press space fast enough I can get to the main menu, but as soon as the popup in the bottom left corner comes up (data changes, m/keyboard detected, etc) it freezes again. Forcing a hard restart. As you can imagine I'm hesitant to keep trying things that I'm not entirely sure will work since I can't just close the game. I downloaded it both off Galaxy, and the pre-download files from GOG.com, both are doing the same thing. I've uninstalled Galaxy and deleted the services and what-not, didn't help, same with deleting Galaxy.dll. Just made the game open a process with no window.
Specs:
Mobo: Asus X99A
CPU: i7-5820k @3.3ghz
RAM: 8gb GDDR4 @ 2400mhz
GPU: GTX 770
Disks: 500gb Samsung 850 EVO, x2 WD Blue 1tb drives
