I searched so many website but can not find any solution...

Your config-log file shows VERY little information. Clearly even the loading screen didn't come up. But fortunately, your DxDiag report does give us a little more information.

DirectX 12 is much too advanced for this game. DirectX 9.0c would've been preferable, but that often doesn't seem to work under Windows 10.
So I would suggest you try to install DirectX 11. The game should run fine with that.

If you are using a nocd hack make sure the hacked exe is in the same place as the original. Do not try and run the nocd from desktop or any other folder.

Yes!! I tried to put the hacked exe. into the same folder and successed!!
But now..I stocked on the family loading screen...
I wait like an hour but still remain the same screen..
I'm not sure what happened exactly qq.
I saw many situations like installed too many mod, but I only installed the EP, SP and the patches needed for update EP (for the install use)
or the problem is those patch?
Ps. Thanks for you two's reply. ><

It might be the nocd, or it might be a dodgy torrent. Post your new configlog and we will look at it.
