    Just got my new M17X r3 yesterday. Redid windows, installed the nvidia beta drivers, etc.

    Running a 580m.

    When I try to launch the game it says: Failed to start error 51 in a steam dialogue.

    I've tried whitelisting the reckoning.exe, steam.exe ect.
    Tried reinstalling directX

    Anyone have any ideas? Couldn't find anyone else on the net having problems like this so far.
