If this issues regularly affects you during gameplay, it is advised to perform <\/span><b>Clean Install<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to upgrade the Graphics Card driver to the latest version at the first instance. Clean Install is different from the usual installation as it will first remove the old driver and then install a newer one. Follow the steps given below to do so.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Download and install <\/span><b>Display Driver Uninstaller<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.guru3d.com\/files-details\/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Once the program has been installed, run it and completely uninstall the drivers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Now download the latest drivers for your graphics card from the links given below:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/support.amd.com\/en-us\/download\" target=\"_blank\"><b>AMD<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/Download\/index.aspx?lang=en-us\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Nvidia<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hopefully, the latest drivers will fix your issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Changing Compatibility Mode<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A big reason for the game crash could be that you are running an older game on a newer OS. However, Windows has an in-built tool that can run programs in several compatibility modes. For instance, if BioShock Infinite worked fine on <\/span><b>Windows 8<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and is crashing in <\/span><b>Windows 10<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, changing the game\u2019s compatibility to Windows 8 will probably fix the issue. Here is how you do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Right on <\/span><b>BioShock Infinite.exe<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and choose <\/span><b>Properties<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Click on the <\/span><b>Compatibility<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Choose <\/span><b>Run this program under compatibility mode for:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and choose <\/span><b>Windows 8<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from the drop down menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Click on <\/span><b>Apply<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> | <\/span><b>OK<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>Verifying Game Files<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the above stated methods don\u2019t work for you, try verifying game files if you have the game on Steam.
