Amnesia Win7 Crashes, demo worked fine [solved] - Wafthrudnir - 09-08-2010 Hi everyone... I encountered a problem with Amnesia (Win7 64bit - FG-Download). The programm crashed immediatly after launching...after reinstalling Graphicsdriver(nvidia) the problem still existed... I opened the hpl.log and saw something like: Couldn't open file XYZ... Simple solution: Run as Admin. Seems to work, hope it helps someone! RE: Amnesia Win7 Crashes, demo worked fine [solved] - Thomas - 09-08-2010 Added your fix to guide!
