2. Start Kerbal Space Program in windowed mode – some players encounter difficulties when trying to run the game in full screen. However, running the game in windowed mode is said to fix the problem.
3. Antivirus problems – antiviruses sometimes block some necessary features for the game. Try running the game with the program disabled.
4. Graphics card drivers – KSP launch problems are also known to occur due to incorrect drivers. Graphics card driver problems do not only occur when they are out of date. Sometimes the opposite is true - if the driver is new it may not yet be compatible with the game.
5. Verify the files – it is always a good idea to check that the installation was successful. Verify the game files, as a last resort try reinstalling.
