I'm afraid the correct driver is still not installed. Right now this says that your computer is not even using the Geforce card.
Perhaps the mainboard has some built in graphics card that gets chosen instead.
Open Start menu, run, type dxdiag and press enter. Check under display and see what card is there.

my crash on startup doesnt give an error, just says "Amnesia.exe has stopped working..." and searches for a solution for a while then forces it to close. Nothing ever comes up though after clicking launch. I've tried all amounts of settings. I've also followed the reinstalling of video drivers method mentioned in other threads. Meaning:
I uninstalled my video drivers, restarted, it installed its drivers automatically, and i manually installed the NVidia drivers from the website, then rebooted. Still gets "amnesia.exe has stopped working" error. I've looked for an error log in documents>amnesia but all thats there is main>cfg file. I've also tried deleting that.
I have vista 64bit with geforce 9800GT graphics card. My rig should own this game
Any help would be much appreciated
