This is just a warning/PSA about incompatibilities with Star Citizen and Air Display:

 

This morning Star Citizen had finished downloading on the my Gaming PC, I couldn't wait to play it on something that could actually run it as I had tried it out on my laptop while I was on vacation. When I launched my game it just froze and crashed. So I went to view event logs and it turned out that Air Display (a program that lets you connect any tablet over WiFi to use a extra display) was causing a crash for some reason.

Event Log:

 

Faulting application name: StarCitizen.exe, version: 3.6.3.2654, time stamp: 0x54947d62
Faulting module name: AirDisplayWDDM.dll_unloaded, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x529fb780
Exception code: 0xc000041d
Fault offset: 0x000000000000b9d4
Faulting process id: 0x2550
Faulting application start time: 0x01d026a1f3e5c569
Faulting application path: E:\StarCitizen\CitizenClient\Bin64\StarCitizen.exe
Faulting module path: AirDisplayWDDM.dll
Report Id: 3585a065-9295-11e4-82e6-448a5b8b7885
Faulting package full name: 
Faulting package-relative application ID: 
 
So I tried closing Air Display and reopening Star Citizen but that did not help. Only after uninstalling Air Display did Star Citizen launch.
