I was just about to say that, restarting your computer legitamitely fixes Deadly Premonition's launch crashing. Granted that game randomly crashes every few hours anyway due to a memory leak, but at least it's playable once you reinstall Physx and restart your computer.

This is usually the most satisfying fix to find. I had an old Gameshark with a USB port so that you could download the cheats easily but no matter where I looked, I couldn't find drivers for the damn thing anywhere.
I spent like 4 hours searching until I finally found some crazy ass page 12 of a search engine russian site that had old ass XP drivers that I had to use on a Virtual Machine to get the software to work.

I got banned from the GTAV forums for complaining about a huge memory leak everyone with 8gb of RAM was having for months, turns out if you had 16gb of ram you'd never notice it because you could play up to 6 hours before seeing a bottleneck as GTAV.exe eats up 12gb of memory.

That i know, even without reading it.
But that does not translate into banishment of Necromancy being some lore pillar in that. There's no council that banishes magic and such. It's completely impossible since magic is relegated to only higher beings so no one could become a magician by choice, it just doesn't work this way in Tolkien world.
