I understand this question has probably been asked many times on this forum before, but how am I to fix this error? I looked at some other posts here that asked the same question, but I feel like I might need some directions with a bit more detail than the others, since I'm really not good with computers at all, and I feel like it'd be doing something wrong in the process and mess something up.
 
Has this game ever worked on this computer? Or never yet?

What happens if you run eu4.exe directly from File Explorer, bypassing Steam and our launcher?


DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.

Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/settings.txt and pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.log
 
This is what Microsoft documentation has to say about your error code.
Code:
0xC000012D
STATUS_COMMITMENT_LIMIT

{Out of Virtual Memory} Your system is low on virtual memory. To ensure that Windows runs correctly, increase the size of your virtual memory paging file. For more information, see Help.
In short, you don't have enough memory installed in your system to be able to run EU4.

Either install more RAM, expand the size of the page file, or both.
