I downloaded all versions, the effect is the same. I don't even want to play with such graphics.

http://dump.ru/file/5892693 is clean for interest, try this config
although from the screenshots, in my opinion it is normal for DS ^ _ ^

Thanks, at least with this file everything starts fine, but the graphics have not improved much (I did not notice). Perhaps you need to replace two lines? I just don't know what numbers to enter.

when I wanted to start the dark souls game, then a window was displayed and an error was displayed, for someone who also had a problem, I advise you to do this:
1. to start, go to the game folder, it will look something like this C: Program Files (x86) Dark Souls - Prepare to Die Edition.
2.you will see there two DATA.exe files and another DATA.exe which opens with a text document, I advise you to open it and copy all the contents of this file then delete it and create a text document file and paste everything that you copied into it, rename it and move it to the game folder C: Program Files (x86) Dark Souls - Prepare to Die Edition
And the game will start. DO NOT JUDGE STRICTLY!!!!!!!)))

What?

And everyone. Nothing helped me at all. Maybe due to the fact that 64 bit Windows?

Works fine on 64bit. The error, by the way, may be due to the fact that the profile on the computer is named in Russian letters. GFWL does not understand Russian letters, and in this case, in the path to the system folders, these very letters are. I had to create an account on my computer just to play this game. I know that you can somehow rename the account, but I didn’t - I am afraid of overlaps after renaming.

Good day everyone!
Who plays tell the directory of the full path of the game, for example I have:
I: Games Dark Souls - PTD Edition - Durante Edition Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition
There was another dark soul between the folders, I deleted it when I moved it, now the game is not starts up.
Thanks in advance.

The people for whom the method described by Dirr did not help, and Windows still issues: "Dark Souls Prepare To Die Edition executable" try to do as I do:
Delete the files:
C: Windows SysWOW64 d3dx9_42.dll (to see this folder you need to remove a tick in the "folder options" from the checkbox: "Hide system-protected folders")
C: Windows System32 d3dx9_42.dll
Then reinstall the DirectX 9.0c update Helped
me !!
I hope it helps you too

Guys, I need help, same problem!
I bought a license, installed it, registered in GFWL, everything goes, there is a network, happiness is joy.
The next day I start, and it gives this error "Dark Souls Prepare To Die Edition executable".

I have already tried everything that was offered here, nothing helps. Are there any other ways?
Thanks in advance.

PS ikbosh.info/Files/DarkSoulsWin8Fix.zip - link no longer works. Can someone lay out, what if anyone has left?

Pamogite people, the game does not start in the process of tasks and the date also weighs in the process, but the game itself does not start up. What can I do?
What solutions are there in this regard?

Maybe that's why the gag is that hangs in the processes? Close the game processes and try again.

tried it already, closed it and started the game again from the shortcut on the desktop, in the processes it appears in the task dispatcher and the game itself does not start xs what to do, the problem was described above, but there was no answer.

I would first try in turn: run from the administrator, restart the computer, cut off the antivirus for a while. I would probably try to reinstall it in another folder out of desperation :)

tried siame from the admin, I restarted the computer several times already, the antivirus is always turned off, except if someone does not bring a USB flash drive.
xs what to do, I have already downloaded the game to the sense of 0 several times, everything is the same.
