I just bought the New game for my Son called "Wolfenstein
Youngblood" and had it installed on his Windows 10 Gigabyte X58
machine, Well it would not start nohow so did a lot of googling but
found no answers
After the fact I looked up the Requirements and Find it needs a 64
bit system and at least 8 GB of memory and 40 GB of HD space.

Well as we know the 1366 X58 runs triple channel memory and his
system only has 6 GB, So I hunted for a while and found a triple
channel corsair 6 GB kit on Amazon and promptly ordered it for $66.
they are getting rather scarce
I hope it solves the problem but no lose if it doesn't as he runs
Photoshop CS6 and it will gain him there.

I have not bought any new games for quite a while and didn't realize
they where so resource hungry, next time I will check the system
requirements before I buy.

OK, added another 6 GB of memory for a total of 12 GB, no joy, the
game needs a more powerful CPU and Video card also.

BTW it runs fine on my new build, Anyway he will benefit in Photoshop
so nothing lost.

Did you try dialing down the settings ?

You could spend half-a-day fiddling with that.
It looks like a "tech demo" rather than a game :-)

The game won't start, it gives a dialog box
'getting ready to launch game" thne stays in windows, So I can't try
anything.

I can't find any references to a logfile.
