Crash after settings chosen.

[joshuafreeman]

I have an intel, and it said if I have an X3100 it should work fine, but it hasn't.

Got my hopes up for a second.

I got the message: Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module <UNKNOWN> at 001B:00000000

Any solutions?

[Spooder Wekd]

Sounds like either a bad install, bad drivers, or you're not an administrator...

[joshuafreeman]

Installed fine, I thought X3100 was a good driver, I am an administrator. xD

"installed fine"? you would not know if there was a bad install usually, it just happens randomly. Just uninstall, restart, and reinstall (and restart again. Trust me.

[jens]

X3100 is below requirements to run Amnesia.

[joshuafreeman]

I looked at the compatibility drivers and it says its compatible, you may want to update it.

Also, will there be any sort of update or patch to make compatibility more likely?

[jens]

It's too old to be supported I'm afraid. You looked at what and where that says it is compatible?

[joshuafreeman]

I can't seem to find it now, but it was a table showing which drivers are compatible within the game, for ATI, Nvidia, Intel and others.

I also just found my hpl log:

That looks bad.

[jens]

This is the Amnesia forum, you are trying to play Penumbra. Yes the X3100 works for playing Penumbra, you will have to download the latest drivers available for the graphics chip and install those to make it work. You will also most likely have to lower the shader quality in the graphics options in the game.

[joshuafreeman]

I got the wrong hpl, thats my bad.

Penumbra don't work either just to let you know.

Correct one:
