Okay, I've scoured posts both here and on Steam and tried everything I can in the troubleshooting guide. So now I'm going for broke and posting here as a last ditch effort. I'm trying to run Soma on a Toshiba laptop, 64 bit Windows 7. The laptop has both Intel i5 integrated graphics and a NVidia GeForce graphics card.
Every time I launch Soma the game goes to a black screen and then says "soma.exe has stopped working." Occasionally this screen will be white but the result is the same. Also it reverts the colors of my laptop to basic (just thought I'd toss that in there).
I've tried troubleshooting, upgrading drivers, running as administrator, even an alternate launcher I found in another post on these forums. I've made sure Nvidia is the default graphics driver to load the game. None of this has worked and Soma is still crashing every time I try to start it. I'm at a loss for what to do, so hopefully someone can toss out something that helps.
For some reason the HPL log didn't attach. I copied and pasted the contents.
