Solved: 8 Years, 8 Months, 4 Weeks ago All Penumbra games, WHITE SCREEN!

I bought amnesia and had a few issues with that with my Intel graphics card. I downloaded the latest driver and it worked.

I then got the amnesia HPL level editor and couldn't get it to work, but was advised to download another recent driver again and advised to not end any processes in my windows task manager. It worked

Now I have bought Penumbra, all of them. It starts fine, but when your able to move around and stuff, the screen is completely white, and only the text is visible. This is for all the Penumbra games.

How can I get this to work?

Thanks

Don't look up cloaca.

You were completely right, yeah I do have that problem.

I ran into the same problem with the bad rendering and all that, but I was rather confused at what jens said, explaining fixing this problem.

What should I do to fix this bad rendering problem?

Right click at desktop and select Nvidia Control Panel. From 3D Settings make sure than the nvidia card is set to run anything. To see if you have a nvidia card, what model is your computer exactly?

There isn't an option "Nvidia Control Panel".

My computer is a Dell Inspiron 620 MT with 4gb RAM. It has a Intel Graphics card, a HD one I presume?

I have a Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

All drivers are up to date, (as far as I know).

It said windows has determined that my drivers are up to date.

I have installed the .exe version. So I think I don't really have to do this, right?

Oh yes desktop, even better. Well try to install this the normal way by just double-clicking the .exe file.This will make sure that your drivers are updated:

I've done it, but nothing has changed. Penumbra is still not rendering properly.
