Civilization V Crashes when playing through an HDMI
Hey all, first post.
I know the title is kinda weird, but the whole situation is pretty confusing to me as well.
Civilization V works great on my laptop. I can play on Ultra, haven't run into any graphics problems or anything else that makes me believe there is something wrong with my laptop.
However, I often like to hook my laptop up to my Samsung HDTV to take over the world/shoot people on a big screen, and I've never had a problem until now. If I try to plug my laptop in mid-game, Civilization just crashes on the spot. And if I already have my laptop hooked up to my tv and I go into Steam and select "play Civilization V" it goes into a black screen, waits a few seconds, and then comes up with a "Civilization V has stopped working" notification.
At first I thought it was an issue with my tv, so I tried hooking it up to one of my friends computer monitors, and it did the same thing.
I looked through the common problems section of this forum and I couldn't find anything to help.
Obviously, this isn't a huge deal, and I still love the game, but it would be great if I could get some help with this.

This is an issue with the notebook in question - Can you post a DXDIAG, and ill see if i know of any "Known" issues on it
-
Awesome, thanks so much for the reply! I am trying to upload my dxdiag, but I am not seeing an "attach folder" icon.
And if I try to paste the entire dxdiag here, the webpage crashes. Clearly, technology has not been on my side lately

Split it into multiple smaller sections if you need to

SIDE NOTE:
I found the issue. Either my internet browser, this forum, or my computer is trying to link all of my directories as websites. So like with D:blahblahblah it is trying to make that into a website, which is why it keeps putting me on a page that says 404 not found.
That's my guess anyways.

I believe that machine has a graphics platform codenamed Optimus - this platform is very unstable, and does unpredictable things.
Can you try disabling the intro video before launching Civ5 with HDMI hooked up, and see if the issue persists
-
That did it! Thank you so much,you were a huge help.
