Level_Editor Black Screen Error - Clanksits - 02-14-2012

I'm new to the whole Custom Stories, and creating, and I feel that my levels could impact the community with some training and hardwork, but before any of that comes into play I am having troubles simply opening my Level Editor. Here is the LevelEditor.log

I'm going to re-download hpl_editor_suite, if this post is still here then the problem still remains.
(Btw I am HP Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit)

RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - Clanksits - 02-15-2012

]: When I finally got something that would somewhat work on the drive installation it said that Windows couldn't verify if it was compatible, and if it was not then it could 1.) Make my computer unstable or 2.) Make my computer not work AT ALL.

The risks are too great, so unless I can get something that is for sure to help, I'm gonna be missing out on something I really wish I had.

Is there any other way that I could bypass the problem/get more help on exact driver updates to help me with my problem?

RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - plutomaniac - 02-15-2012

continue no matter what that says


RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - Clanksits - 02-15-2012

Okay.. I tried it and apparently it wouldn't work anyway.. I think it's because when I downloaded it, it said it was Vista, which.. my computer is NOT vista, so I'm getting really annoyed that I can't choose, unless I'm doing something wrong.

Maybe you can help me better identify my computer Operating System, please?

RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - plutomaniac - 02-15-2012

You said that you are using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit in the first post. Anyway, you can find that by right clicking Computer > Properties


RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - Clanksits - 02-16-2012

Well yeah, but everything on the site to download is apparently for Vista or XP giving me options of.. not really anything..
Lets start back at square 1 - I'm looking for an Intel Graphic Media Accelerrator For (HP) Windows 7 Home Premium. Since I'm not doing anything right, can you just send me a link to a direct download?

RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - Clanksits - 02-16-2012

Allright.. Now I've got what you sent me and my next challenge awaits..
After pressing "Have Disk" to select the new Graphic Card... well what do I do from there on :3 From the example set on the link you first gave me you selected something in the folder named "Graphics."
The only thing in my Graphics folder is 2 other folders, Lang and MediaSDK, and igdlh.info
What should I do? o.O


RE: Level_Editor Black Screen Error - plutomaniac - 02-17-2012

step 10 says Select the file named igdlh.INF (not .info)
