    *SOLVED - see last post*
    I cannot start AMS in windows 10 64 bit. Its the only game that wont start out of the 300 i own. I have read every forum and post. None of the sollutions work. I start AMD, i see the video setup screen. I press Continue and Windows 10 give this "pling plong" sound and that is it. Direct X install from the support folder, admin rights, compability set to all windows version available, deleting Automobilista folder from documents. Exception for my AV. deleting all kind of DX files. Nothing works. All i hear is pling plong.

    Very frustrating as there is no help to be found anymore. I cannot be bothered with Reiza anymore. They had their best time with AMS. I will skip AMS2 because of the game engine they choose. I'll race ACC

    Have you tried running the game in windowed borderless mode? I've had the same issue with AMS 1 since the latest Windows 10 updates and windowed borderless is what i have to do now.

    SOLVED!
    I knew i had this problem before but i could not get to the solluttion, until now. In the UEFI i OC-ed my CPU to 4,8. After selecting the UEFI defaults i am able to start AMS. It is a radical sollution as i play games that really gain on OC-ing the CPU so i have to figure which setting AMS does not like.
