  13. Ronaldsnk says

    For those who are having the “has stopped working” issue when starting the Cell Saga try this, it worked for me:

    – Select Default Configuration graphics option.
    – Put the game in windowed mode
    – Press ctrl+alt+supr to bring the task manager windows, right click on the Dragon Ball Xenoverse process and select “afinity” (i dont know if it is afinity or something else, my windows is in spanish) or something like that to 4 cores. What you need is to tell the process to use all of your CPU cores, by default it is in 2. I use a software called System Explorer and it let me save my configuration for each process i need.

    After that, defeat your enemies and you can save your data and restore back your preferences.
