Immediate Game Crash

[noodlez]

Hello!
I bought Amnesia from Steam. I am running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium, with an nVidia GTX 470 and an AMD Phenom 965 (I think) Quad-core.

Problem: The launcher comes up. I click launch game, and Windows immediately tells me Amnesia has stopped working.

I have no hpl.log. I only have the Launcher and main settings.cfg

Code: (Select All)

The only thing I can show you is the "problem signature":

I browsed your forums before posting, so I did update my drivers and I updated my .net framework because I saw that as a suggestion in another thread. I have also tried running Amnesia as a stand-alone I guess, I went to the steam folder and just use the Amnesia application. It crashed the same way. I have attached my Launcher, if you require my main_settings, let me know.

Thank you for any and all help.

I'm guessing there is a permission problem if it crashes and there is no hpl.log in My Documents/Amnesia/. What if you run Amnesia.exe as an admin?

Well don't I feel like a dope. I enabled administrator control for both Launcher and Amnesia, the in amnesia dark descent folder. It all works fine now!

Thank you very much for your help, it was much appreciated!
