Black Screen

[SirSpen]

Okay, so here's the deal. I downloaded Amnesia from Steam. I go to play it and it's only a black screen with a white dot. I followed the have disk method, but there is no igdlh64 file in the Graphics folder. I have windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD. Yes, I downloaded the correct driver from the website. The folder only contained a kit51428 file and this kit file doesn't work.

Give me your HPL.log in My Documents/Amnesia/Main

[SirSpen]

I'm going to sound stupid, but how do I do that?

[plutomaniac]

This is Intel's idiotic fault. Download the previous driver as they have included the wrong .inf files at the newest release of some older Intel HD graphics cards.

I'm going to sound stupid, but how do I do that?

Open the following folder at this directory.
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\My Documents\Amnesia\Main

If you see a text saying, HPL.log, or just HPL, open it in notepad. Then copy-pasta the contents in here

[SirSpen]

Oh, I can do that lol. I thought there was away to attach a file to a reply.

Spoiler below!
