Mirrors Edge wont start

Every time I try to launch Mirrors Edge and click Play, nothing happens. I've kept an eye on my task manager and see that Mirrors edge starts to run but closes it self before anything comes up. I have tried fixing the resolution and even tried to download the Physx thing.

I have run Mirrors Edge before on my computer so my specs shouldn't be an issue.
I'd love for somone to be able to help me with this because this game is so awesome.

Thanks.

I am having this exact same problem. I have never been able to play this game because of this problem.

My drivers are up to date, and I disabled the physx engine and I am still having the same problem. Wackollama is that true for you as well?

This is what it says at PC Gaming Wiki

Install the latest Nvidia PhysX System Software regardless of whether you are using an Nvidia, AMD or alternative graphics card.

AMD Radeon and alternative GPU users who are able to start the game using this method are then advised to disable PhysX in the options menu.

Your monitor may not be supported. Open the engine config file (%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\My Games\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\TdGame\Config\TdEngine.ini) and change the resolution. Look for ResX and ResY in [SystemSettings] section) to one supported by your monitor (try 1024x768 if you don't know what your monitor supports)

Not sure if it helps you.

You have to edit the TdEngine.ini archive that usually are in C:\Users\"Your User"\Documents\EA Games\Mirror's Edge\TdGame\Config and go to the ResX and ResY and put your native resolution....

I have this game through Steam so I don;t have an EA Games file. If I try to alter the files steam throughs a hissy fit and says I've ruined the integrity of the files.

I'm having the same problem, it makes no sense. I played the game for about an hour a few months ago, now it won't start.

This method fixed it for me: copy Mirror's Edge\Binaries\PhysXLocal\PhysXLoader.dll and paste it in Binaries folder and start game

When I go into C:\Users\My Name\ My Documents\ EA Games\ Mirrors Edge\ Binaries, THAT folder is empty. But that's not where my steam apps are, I forget what that folder is even for.

Go to where the games actually installed, like in my case its in H:\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\mirrors edge\Binaries\PhysXLocal.

In PhysxLocal you'll find the PhysXLoader.dll, copy that, and paste it into \SteamApps\common\mirrors edge\Binaries.
