Remember the differences in case you need that in the future for something else. Windows 10 removed that restriction, and needs a slightly different syntax to work correctly. The REASON you are use SHORT DOS names for Win7 and 8.1 is because of how the CMD processor syntax requires no spaces in file or folder names. Your custom Steam shortcut is now actually pointing to the Windows Command Processor (CMD.exe) instead of Steam itself (remember you edited it).

> On Win7 and 8,1 you will see the steam icon change to a simple black box. > Now, in the box marked "Start In" replace Win10: cmd /C start "steam" /affinity 0xff "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe" Win7 and 8.1: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 0xff C:\PROGRA~2\STEAM\STEAM.EXE > Now, right-click that NEW shortcut and select "Properties" from the mouse context menu. right-click -> New -> Shortcut -> then click "browse" and go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe, then select the main "Steam.exe" program (ignore the others) and click "OK". > Start by making a NEW shortcut on the desktop, and browsing to Steam with the "create shortcut" widget.

By limiting the main Steam Launcher itself with a custom shortcut, all other Steam assets inherit the same settings which greatly inproves compantibility with older games. Four cores with hyperthreading gives you 8 logical cores.

I will explain the Steam version, and you should be able ot figure out the other one easily.īONUS: this tweak actually fixed startup crashes on a few other old classic games also! older games don't run any faster on more than the first 8 logical cores anyhow. Either run the Prototype game directly with a custom shortcut, OR, run Steam itself with the custom shortcut. If you have more than 8 "logical" cores in total (this means physical cores PLUS Hyper-threading cores AND you are using a 64b version of Windows (7, 8, 8.1, or 10), then you have two options. Okay, after MUCH testing, and great amounts of research, I have collated the useful info for this annoying crash.
