Method #1 — Update Your GPU Drivers:
Each time a new game releases, both NVIDIA and AMD release new drivers specifically optimised for that game. Since Ghosts ‘n Goblins Resurrection is a new release, you may want to update your GPU drivers to make sure that you don’t run into any issues while playing the game. You can download the most up-to-date drivers from your GPU manufacturer’s website; AMD or NVIDIA.
Method #2 — Disable NVIDIA G-Sync/AMD FreeSync:
If you have a monitor that is compatible with NVIDIA G-Sync or AMD FreeSync, you may have either of these already enabled on your PC. Based on your GPU, you should disable them to avoid start-up crashes. You can disable both NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync on your NVIDIA or AMD GPU from within the NVIDIA Control Panel or AMD Radeon Settings, respectively. You can also disable NVIDIA G-Sync or AMD FreeSync directly from your monitor’s OCD menu (different for every manufacturer).
Method #3 — Update Windows 10:
Every now and then, Microsoft releases updates for Windows 10. These updates optimize the operating system and remove any previous performance issues. If you haven’t updated Windows 10 in a while, this may be your call to do so. You may already have automatic updates on Windows 10 enabled but you can also manually check if your Windows is up-to-date by going to Settings and then to Update & Security.
