Black screen fixes wont work, and i think my desktop is supported - GS563 - 08-19-2013

Ive tried everything to make Amnesia run. It has the infamous black screen problem, which the only fixes seem to be for laptops. I think my processer is supported and up to date, but it still wont work.

I have a desktop that runs Windows 7, has Intel® Core™ i3-2120 Processor, and the desktop itself is a Gateway dx4860-ub32p.

Did you recently got Justine, if you do, please re-download it again and re-install. Looks like some Justine assets are corrupted or something.

Hi,

Intel HD is not supported. It works if you update the drivers, follow the installation guide found in the top threads in the tech support section.
