Hello, I just bought SR3 two days ago and when I try to start the game up from Steam, the launcher screen just shows up as white and never loads at all. Is there any way to fix this problem? Here's my DXDiag..

Thank you for any help that you can give me!  

 

So here's an update for those who are having the same problems as me. 

Simply move the Steam folder (and the Saints Row folder) into your C: drive. For some reason, the game's programming can't allow the game to run unless it's located in a C drive.

If you don't want to move the whole steam folder (due to size issues), just create in your C >

Program Files > Steam > steamapps > common > *insert Saints Row the Third folder here*

Then instead of running the game through Steam, just run the direct 9/11 launcher in that folder and that should run the game! 

Thanks for the help no one!
