Amnesia Launch Failure - Carrotcarrotcarrot - 08-03-2011
Amnesia won't start. I get the launcher open, click Launch, and it tries to open it but fails, giving me a small error box in the top left corner with no exit button that says Retrieving and Analyzing Crash Data. It loads to 85% then goes white, and I get a more proper-looking box titled Amnesia.exe. It says Amnesia.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have never gotten it to play correctly.
I am on a laptop running XP.

You cannot play the game with such graphics card. Your gpu supports OpenGL 1.5 when the game requires at least OpenGL 2.1
RE: Amnesia Launch Failure - Carrotcarrotcarrot - 08-03-2011
Not sure what a graphics card is. Is this something I can update?
RE: Amnesia Launch Failure - plutomaniac - 08-03-2011
If it a desktop yes, if it is laptop no.
