amnesia problems? - killahaseo - 12-21-2010

Alright so bought amnesia today because I've heard it's a really good game and it's is on sale. installed it and got an error "amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module <UNKNOWN> at 0023:00000000" so i UN-installed it and re-installed it, same problem, so I put everything on low, still the same problem. I have a ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics card, now if i post my hpl.txt supposedly you gentlemen could figure out my problem which would be awesome Big Grin.

Taking a look at your log and comparing it to the "Troubleshooting Guide" found right at the top of this very forum, it seems the game is using an integrated graphics chip (on-board GPU) instead of your ATi card (see A.5 in the troubleshooting guide).
Take a look at the thread "amnesia uses wrong graphic card", too. Perhaps there's a similar option in your ATI drivers to the one Steezy shows in that thread for the nVidia drivers.
Fallback solution would be to disable your onboard graphics card altogether.

If you don't have an onboard graphics card, I don't know what's wrong, but posting your PC's specs might be a good idea anyway.

update your graphics card drivers and try again.
