Starting up error, BlackBox. - Tartare - 03-01-2013
The game remains in a blackscreen. I get some kind of EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module Amnesia.exe at 001B:004619EA
Here, have the log.
I've tried everything in the troubleshooting.
It's a desktop computer. AMD Athlon 64 Processor. 3800+
2.41 GHz, 1.75 GB of RAM
Windows XP Service Pack 3.
Nvidia GForce 6150 LE
0u0
Keep up the good work.

You might get the game to work if you go to nvidia.com and get the latest drivers available for your graphics card. But unfortunately it will be difficult to make it work or if it works to run at an acceptable performance as you card is the very low end of what is possible and is an integrated chip and not a dedicated graphics card.
RE: Starting up error, BlackBox. - Tartare - 03-01-2013
Ah, I've tried downloading the latest drivers before I ever made this topic.
Alas, It seems there are... no drivers avaliable for my graphics card.
I am very upset, as I can perfectly play some other games! So I doubt it's a thing about my graphics card.
If it won't work either way, I understand. uvu

It is, this is a very old low-end graphics card and it barely supports OpenGL 2.1 which is required from Amnesia.
RE: Starting up error, BlackBox. - Tartare - 03-01-2013
So I assume, I just cannot play the game with my actual graphics card?
Nod,nod.
Thank you kindly for your support!

You can with the latest drivers from nvidia, but not optimally and possibly it will feel laggy
RE: Starting up error, BlackBox. - Tartare - 03-01-2013
The thing is, I've searched for them, but It turns out, There literally isn't any GForce drivers for my card! The Nvidia scanner told me.
Well, I guess I won't play the game anytime soon...

These are the latest drivers from 25/02/2013: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp-307.83-whql-driver.html
