Space Engineers not starting in Windows 7
Hi
I asked for help getting Space Engineers to run on my Windows 7 computer but the Steam forums where unable to help.

It consistently freezes at 2 GB of ram usage after about a minute of loading.

I have tried installing the latest .net redistrobutables and MSVC++ 2015-2019 x64 14.29.30133, and MSVC++ 2013 x64 12.0.40664
I tried running it with only 1 monitor on and that did not help.
I have attached the log from my last attempt to run it.
Hello,
Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue. Unfortunately, as mentioned in the Steam forum post, Windows 10 is the minimum requirement to run Space Engineers as shown on the Steam page. I would suggest trying the below to see if any of these assist as I see for example your DirectX Driver Version is out of date but as mentioned, Windows 10 is the minimum requirement. I really apologise for this.
Kind Regards
