I also cleaned my cpu cooler which was dusty. I had fullscreen optimisations already disabled, and I can't find vsync and refresh rate options in the launcher. I can bypass the blackscreen by starting the game in windowed mode. I can however alt tab and close the game as well as klick things in the game menu (that I'm not able to see but hear). Instead of a crash I now get a flimmering black screen while the game is open. The installation was seemingly successful because everything including games works, except it completely broke the steam version of eu4 haha (the epic game version still works fine). Then I used the Intel download center to download and clean install the newest driver for my graphics chip. I tried updating my drivers by using the device manager, which didn't work, because it couldn't find a newer version of my driver online. I have tried a fresh reinstall as instructed, but it didn't fix it. The error message pops up when i start the game though and not when it crashes. I get that because my laptop doesn't have a graphics card and my processors graphics chip uses mostly shared memory which the game seemingly doesn't detect when checking for how much vram I have. The only error message I get is a warning that my vram isn't big enough. I'm pretty sure the steam version with all dlc enabled used to work a couple months ago, but I don't know the specific patch on which the first crashes happened. I have tried to test what specific dlc might be causing the crashes and while testing crashes only occurred when the unit packs where enabled. The epic game version works fine (played whole campaigns without crashes), and the steam version seems to work fine as well with dlc disabled. It is hard to trouble shoot because when I test whether the game works I can never know if it just hasn't crashed yet. I own eu4 on epic games without any dlc and on steam with all dlc. There is no specific event that causes it (the crash also occurs if I leave the game paused on the start date). The game crashes after a random amount of time (10 - 20 min ish) on the campaign map.
