Solved: 8 Years, 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago AMD APU problems

So, I got Amnesia on Steam through the Humble Indie Bundle V. Before, I had the AMD Radeon HD4850 which worked perfectly well with Amnesia. My GPU failed, so I bought a new PC with the AMD A8 5600K at its core, acting as the sole GPU in the PC. The problem is, that I simply can't start Amnesia, it always fails displaying an error:

"Amnsesia.exe has caused an EXEPTION_ACCESS_VOILATION"

I have all the latest MBO and CPU/GPU drivers installed, and the APU is more than capable to run the game.

Please help!

Setup:
Windows 8 Pro x64
CPU/GPU: AMD A8 5600K
RAM: 8GB 1600MHz DDR3

Ah, finally, I have figured it out! Sorry for starting a new thread, but I think you should add AMD's new APU's to the troubleshooting guide. The problem was, that I installed the CPU+GPU+MBO drivers from my MBO vendor, ASUS. What I didn't notice was, that the GPU drivers in that package weren't a full version, just a part. So I went to the official AMD site and downloaded the CCC from the following link:

I hope this will help other people, too.
