Black Screen white dot fix - Selkanator - 10-15-2012
Hi, I just downloaded Amnesia and I've got the black screen, white dot problem that effects so many people. I have an Intel® HD Graphics card. I've read other threads and I've tried the "have disk" method like a thousand times and it hasn't worked, it says that "The driver selected for this device does not support this version of windows". I have a Dell Laptop, with Windows 7 64-bit. My hpl log is attached to this, if someone could please help me that would be awesome.

Try an earlier version of the driver, last I heard the latest driver release for the IntelHD is broken and have disk method does not work with it.
RE: Black Screen white dot fix - plutomaniac - 10-16-2012
from where did you get the game from?
RE: Black Screen white dot fix - Selkanator - 10-16-2012
I got it from Steam, and I'll look for the old driver.

Sorry if I'm bumping but if you haven't already, try running the game with lower or lowest settings. Also a resolution of 1024x768 may help. Sometimes, it may help to try with lower resolutions and/or fullscreen off. I heard that this helps specifically with Intel HD GPUs.
