Amnesia The Dark Descent not running - Sakura4anime25 - 09-07-2011
Hi, I bought Amnesia on Steam and it won't run. When I try to run it, it says this: "FATAL ERROR: Render #0 could not be initialized! Make sure your graphic card drivers are up to date. Check log file for more information" I went and updated my drivers but I still got the same message. I then looked in the troubleshooting guide and I tried everything that it suggested to fix the problem, but nothing worked. Can someone help me get the game to work please? I have also attached the file that it asked me to attach when making a post here.
Thank you

Due to Intel outdated driver issues, your card is below system requirements to play the game

So I wasted $20 for nothing...

I am really not happy about that

so seriously that's it, I wasted $20 and I can't play the game at all?

Afraid that is the case, the integrated graphics chip you have is not capable of running the game. Maybe Intel will update the drivers so that the game will run, but the chip is quite old so it seems unlikely.

moreover, the game requirements state that only Nvidia/AMD cards are supported. Other cards might work but they haven't been tested. Integrated gpu's will likely not work.

Well, I was planning on playing it with my friend anyway so maybe it will work on her laptop... I'll have to check...
