Game never gets past intro - MeekRhino - 09-13-2011 When I open the game, it brings up a graphics menu. I leave it at the default, and press continue. The game starts, and the intro begins. It says something about immersing myself in the game, not playing to win, etc. After 2-4 screens of this, the game goes black upon me hitting continue. The music continues to play, but my mouse is stuck in the upper left corner. Alt + Tab does not do anything, and pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete appears to do nothing at first but eventually it does go to the log out/task manager menu. Upon pressing cancel or opening the task manager, I either cannot move the mouse or find Amnesia unresponsive and have to quit it. Sometimes I have to manually power down the computer because I can't do anything. Please help me, I really want to play this game.

It is a desktop, right? What operating system do you have and also 32-bit or 64-bit? RE: Game never gets past intro - thephoenix1860 - 09-13-2011 Re-installation? That happend me with another game,too (stupid answer i know) have you downloaded the game from steam or from another website?
