SSE won't load (at all)

I have it installed on my personal use computer, since I actually tend to bring this with me whenever I travel as opposed to bringing my gaming computer; I have games such as Black Ops III, SWTOR, and Halo working on it but for some reason whenever I run SSE it won't go past the launcher. Every time I run it, it goes through a setup menu and closes (DirectX setup).

 

HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF

Windows 10 Pro

1TB Hitachi HDD

12GB DDR3 RAM

Intel Core i5-3470 (Quad Core) @ 3.20 GHz

NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 2GB DDR3 64-Bit

HP 22cwa 21.5" 1920x1080

 

As I said, this isn't intended as a gaming computer, but SSE is the only game I have an issue with on this computer.

That GT 710 GPU gives me the chills. Not a GPU intended for gaming. If you're able to run any games on that HP you must be able to walk on water. Or you're running a resolution that hasn't been seen since the stone age.

 

A 710 is the lowest in the 7XX family and its only purpose is to show your desktop... Apologies for being kinda blunt here.

 

Finding real gaming cards (anything starting from a 60 at the end and up) in a low profile model will prove hard, if not impossible. And then you'll need a stronger PSU as well which probably won't fit inside that Small Factory Form, either.

 

I got one myself (HP DC7600) which has my music on it and is used as a juke-box.

I am indeed aware of the shameful capacity of the 710, but as mentioned before I can get nearly anything else to run on it on low res. I have a spare GTX 1050, but it is naturally to large for this desktop to use.

 

If it were the Graphics I'm sure the game would work on low res; but the fact remains it fails to go anywhere past the launcher, fails to even attempt it. Hitting play is the equivalent of closing out any other window normally.

 

In the end, I was able to put it on my EliteBook with pretty good performance, suppose I really have nothing to complain about especially considering the computer I have that actually is intended for gaming. I have an extra case as well so I'll likely just buy a new psu and gut this desktop so I can use the GTX 1050. Thanks for the reply.

Maybe also check GPU drivers and DirectX updates. I know Skyrim SE uses DirectX 11 and the GT710 should be capable to run those, but an update usually never hurts. Just make sure you can roll back in case the new drivers don't work out.

 

Also have a look at ENBoost to fool the OS into "thinking" you have truckloads of V-RAM and use system RAM as video RAM. Don't worry that the tool sits in the FO4 section. It should work for SSE as well. It did for me anyway.
