After continued troubleshooting, I have still come up empty-handed. Is it possible the issue is caused by my HDD? I know my friend may not have as advanced of a graphics card, but he is using an SSD and not having any issues with the game. Would I have any way of verifying that the HDD is in fact the problem?

Let's look at the hard drive:

 

Get the free version of Speccy:

 

http://www.filehippo...download_speccy (Look in the upper right for the Download

Latest Version button  - Do NOT press the large Start Download button on the upper left!)  Download, Save and Install it.  Run Speccy.  When it finishes (the little icon in the bottom left will stop moving), File, Save as Text File,  (to your desktop) note the name it gives. OK.  Open the file in notepad and delete the line that gives the serial number of your Operating System.  (It will be near the top about 10 lines down.) Attach the file to your next post.
