System, CPU and GPU)

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,

I don't have a log of the crash, I can replay and get one if need be. I had audio set to use xAudio2, and no framerate limit, other than that all configuration was set to default.

Have you tried using single core? This is a dualcore sensitive game and you have a weak GPU, so it's possible that's the cause of your issue.

Go into Sky of Arcadia iso game properties and set deterministic dual core to "fake-completion", this fixes the dual-core crashes for this game (as for many others)

Thanks for the tips, I will try this as soon as I am able.

Yep, that seems to have solved it. I just assumed it was some kind of windows 8 issue, thanks for the help.

If this is a known issue, shouldnt the ini be updated to perform this action as the default?
