Game won't start - forlornhope - 09-29-2015 Whenever I try to start the game, it crashes before anything shows up. Then I get a message saying "Amnesia.exe caused EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module atioglxx.dll at 0023:0674B212, DrvSwapBuffers()+0162 byte(s) The log says this Version 1.31 -------- THE HPL ENGINE LOG ------------ Creating Engine Modules -------------------------------------------------------- Creating graphics module Creating system module Creating resource module Creating input module Creating sound module Creating physics module Creating ai module Creating gui module Creating generate module Creating haptic module Creating scene module -------------------------------------------------------- Initializing Resources Module -------------------------------------------------------- Creating loader handlers Creating resource managers Adding loaders to handlers -------------------------------------------------------- Initializing Graphics Module -------------------------------------------------------- Init lowlevel graphics: 1024x768 disp:0 bpp:32 fs:1 ms:0 gpufmt:2 cap:'Amnesia - The Dark Descent - Loading...' pos-1x-1) Setting video mode: 1024 x 768 - 32 bpp Just confused since I know this computer has run much more recent games without problem. RE: Game won't start - jens - 09-29-2015 You most likely have to update the drives for the graphics card. Visit amd.com and download and install the latest available. RE: Game won't start - forlornhope - 09-29-2015 Thanks. that seems to have worked
