    Hi guys.
    I tried to play this game at maxed out using the DirectX10 version, but, almost ramdon, mostly on every escene the game "crash" to desktop, i dont get error ar messages saying that something is wrong or something like that, also, if i press the window of the game this start "at the same" part, but is really annoying, im using the latest Dell drivers for my card and my specs are on my signature.
    (I did a search but dont find nothing about this game, specific)
    Thanks.

    Edited: This little "trick" works for me, also, i can play the game on DirectX10 mode and getting no crash on the cinematics so far, here is what i did:

    Go to C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Local\CAPCOM\DEVILMAYCRY4
    Find the config.ini, open it and find the line which say: "SLI=ON", as i am not using double card, xfire or sli, on my Laptop, i've turned it OFF, saved the changes and thats all.

    DMC4 CTD Solved!

    This is all I could find. Problem is that the guy is referencing Windows XP.
