No Video, but subtitles - Speedpikachu - 10-26-2011
I am running Windows 7 on my Asus K52F; when I run Amnesia: The Dark Descent, I am able to see the main menu and make selections. When I try to begin a new game, I see the loading screen. After it loads, I have audio and I can see the subtitles along the bottom of the screen, when Daniel is talking to himself. The problem is: I have no video at all. I know that he is supposed to be stumbling through a castle corridor, but I cannot see that. After he finishes talking to himself and I gain control, I can see the current objective at the top of the screen as well as the journal if I open it. I can hear the water running, and I can walk and run, but I can't tell where I'm going.
Does anyone have a possible solution (or reason) for this happening?

Possibly it is a driver issue. Please post your hpl.log under Documents/Amnesia/Main and specify your operating system, if it's 32 bit or 64 bit alongside your graphic card.
RE: No Video, but subtitles - plutomaniac - 10-26-2011
1. What operating system do you have? Also 32-bit or 64-bit?
2. Is it a laptop or a desktop? If a laptop, what model?
3. Attach me here the file HPL.log found under Documents\Amnesia\Main folder.

go to the HP section
I already checked that section actually, but upon further inspection I found my bios was outdated. I asked my computer to update the bios and it said it was up to date. After my post and you referring me back to the hp section I decided to manually check the bios numbers and go through hp's website and sure enough I was outdated. So much for automated updates...
It works fine now after I switched dynamic graphics to fixed.
Thanks again.

So the guide, although it is a little bit lengthy, helped. Great! Have fun playing the game then!
RE: No Video, but subtitles - Speedpikachu - 11-05-2011
Thank you all very much! It was a driver issue... I had downloaded the driver, but for some reason it didn't stick. I re-downloaded it, and the game plays just fine. A little laggy, but I think if I reduce all the graphics off of super-awesome-amazing, it should run without too many issues.
Thanks again, I appreciate it!

Update the drivers for the graphics card, see the stickies at the top of the technical support section for detailed guides.
