Default Game Installs but won't run

Not certain if this has been addressed yet ? I have 2 video cards a GForce 9600 GSO and a GForce GTX 260. I had not played the game in a couple ofweeks, tonight I went to play it and it updated the Ubi Game launcher along with some auto patch stuff. Then the game would not run at all, wouldnot even start. I have uninstalled it 5 times now. each time I reinstall it says incorrect Graphics driver. So I go to Nvidia and download the 270.61 drivers for the GForce GTX 260 and install them. The game still will not run . any ideas ?

When you install the game is normal to have this message... everybody had the same message... so for that is ok

In your place i will reinstall the OS... i will use the card that is most performant... i will not install any vga driver... i will make the windows update... if you use Win7 do not install the SP1 - very importan... your windows will detect your cga card and will update the drivers... use those drivers even on net you find versions up to data... so use the vga drivers that windows update will put by defaul.. install the game... see if is working... if not past here your computer speck... be sure you not have this in you control pannel - installed programs: Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable 9.0.30729.4974

if is there just unninstall

Default Got it figured out

Seems there is an issue with one of the new Ubi Game Launcher files and Computer Anti Virus. If you turn off the Anti virus the game will run and work fine. I have no idea why it is doing this now since I have been running the game on this PC even with anti virus activated. Don't know if Ubi will look into this or not, at any rate just in case anyone else has the same issue just turn your anti virus off to play and it should work fine ?
