I'm getting this "Exception access violation" error. Amnesia is constantly crashing in exactly the same place (in Cistern). The error reads: "Exception Access Violation in module nvogly32.dll" (there is a lot more to the message but this was all that I managed to write down before the message stopped appearing; now when it crashes the screen just goes black and freezes there).

I've been through your trouble-shooting guide and have tried just about everything. When this was happening in an earlier section/map, turning off VSYNC did the trick, but apparently something is needed now, and I have no idea what. In case it's helpful below is my hpl detail, but mine doesn't say "GDI Generic". Please help.

I'm having the same problem. In addition, despite the fact that I downloaded the game off Direct2Drive, it tells me I need a disc. This is bugging the heck out of me.

[TenaciousBDN]

You have an intel integrated graphics chip, which is below requirements and not capable of running the game.

can you do anything to make the game work even if you have an intel chip??

[jens]

Some Intel integrated graphics can run the game when Intel has updated the drivers, for example the Intel HD now works as Intel fixed the problems they had with their drivers. But for some older graphics they are either 1. too old or 2. drivers have not been updated yet.

So we can't do anything about making it work, but Intel can and they are (but slow at it).
