I recently got a laptop, which came with windows 8 (-_-) I installed magicka but I can't play it. I have already tried running xnafx31_redist from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Magicka\Dependencies\ but the game still crashes before it even gets to the menu. Any ideas?

Even when it came out it was pretty bad. I don't know what they've done to it now, but I can't even start a co-op game anymore. :(

6 comments no specs from any1 o boy

i did 4man groups of magicka when it first came out with everyone on win7 but we were all on good spec desktops, I'm assuming this is a laptop only issue?

I found when I recently reinstalled it, one of the required application dongles didn't install properly (not directx, something similar though). I had to navigate to the folder and manually run it. Don't know if that's the same problem at all
