Penumbra: Black Plague graphic problem.

[Hailfiretank]

Hello!

I brought Penumbra: Black Plague recently - aka around 10 minutes ago.
Having played Amnesia the Dark Descent (which I loved and ran perfectly on low settings, despite low fps), I thought I would try it out.

Unfortunately, upon loading the game (the menu works fine, just in the 'actual' game) there are no graphics. Just a white screen filled with static.

As required by the troubleshoot thread:

1. What operating system do you have? Also 32-bit or 64-bit?
I have Windows 7 64-bit

2. Is it a laptop or a desktop? If a laptop, what model?
Laptop, model is Acer Aspire 5742

3. Attach me here the file HPL.log found under Documents folder:

Spoiler below!

Additional information:
I have Intel HD Graphics - while not officially supported for Penumbra or Amnesia, I was able to play it with low fps on low settings.
I have the Steam version.
I have not activated my product key - I was given one by steam, however I have been had to enter it in game yet.

Many thanks to anyone who can help with this issue!

EDIT: Just found a page about this issue, shall see what others have attempted. Sorry.
