You will have to consult the manual that came with your computer, or search online forums for your computer, to see what options you have available. ---

Yeah, mine may be a little different than this problem. I’m on a 2003 Windows Gateway laptop and I want to download Epic Games and Fortnite. So I look up Epic Games Download, click on the very first website thingy. Then I hit download, download for Windows, and then it shows that it’s downloading at the bottom, but when I click/double click on the download file, it says “opening,” but then it doesn’t do anything. Please help me with this problem. ---

If a graphic card is not supported or do not have minimal requirements I would expect that the launcer will end with an error saying: graphic card not supported or something similar… for speed issues I would expect the game to work with slower performances… not a mysterious crash without any error! ---

Open your task manager by pressing ctrl+alt+delete and find the epic games launcher, even if it’s not showing that it’s running, end the task, wait a second, and try opening the launcher again from your desktop. ---
