Game wont launch after I choose dx9 or dx11

[Abralux]

Hi Guys,

just changed my motherboard and therefore had to reinstall. As in the title the game wont start.

I know it has something to do with the creation of the civ5 folder in My documents/My games folder. The game doesnt create.

I remember that i have to do something to enable steam to access those folders

Solution tried so far
booting in safe mode
re-installing dx9 and dx11
running vcredit
running steam in administrative mode
always verifying the game cache in between to get the 1 file that unable the game to start a new install.



does anybody remember the solution to that problem?
