  One common reason for dead rising 2 crashing on Steam when launching the game could be outdated graphics drivers. Make sure to update your graphics drivers to the latest version and try launching the game again. If this doesn't solve the issue, you can also try verifying the game files through Steam to ensure that all game files are intact and not corrupted.

  Another possible reason for the game crashing on launch could be conflicting software or background processes. Try closing any unnecessary programs running in the background and temporarily disable any antivirus or firewall software. This can help identify if any third-party software is causing conflicts with the game.

  At BYDFi, we understand the frustration of game crashes. One solution you can try is running the game in compatibility mode. Right-click on the game's executable file, go to Properties, and navigate to the Compatibility tab. Check the box that says 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' and select a previous version of Windows. This can sometimes resolve compatibility issues and prevent crashes on launch.
