Solved: 8 Years, 8 Months, 3 Weeks ago Amnesia crashes display drivers

So I bought Amnesia recently for $19.99, and after the fact I learned of these numerous problems that occur. I have re installed the game and it still crashes it. It crashes about 10 minutes into the game, and I takes forever to exit out. This is an outrage because I paid good money for this, and I cannot play it. I am surprised their hasn't been any crash fixes for this by any one. My drivers are up to date

This is a recent issue caused by AMD's drivers, not the game's fault. Downgrade your drivers until it goes away. Also, crossfire configurations aren't always stable.

Yes, I am aware of the crossfire issue. I have had them before. Anyway I will try to downgrade my drivers, but that may cause problems with other games? Have you heard of any news of a fix for it?

It shouldn't really cause problems with other games unless you downgrade too far. Keep downgrading until Amnesia no longer has problems.

I don't know about Crossfire, but it could also be a problem. Try turning it off.

(I don't know much about this kind of stuff, just throwing this out there.)

Infrequently active. Don't expect an immediate response. Best to contact me at a different locale. If I create a thread, expect me to be quite active.

If you have Driver Version 12.8, that may be the cause. I've heard they cause a lot of problems. I think downgrading to 12.6 or 12.4 would probably fix it.
