Game won't start

[omarlobo]

I already tried to update my drivers, and I have an intel HD graphics video card, I read most intel cards aren't compatible, but is there really no way to start the game even if it glitches a few times here and there?

This is the log

Thanks in advance.

Update your Intel HD graphics drivers.

But I don't think that your integrated graphic card have enough power to run the game.

I already tried, I used the auto updater and it says I have everything up to date.

It will really depend on whether it's compatible or not, games that are compatible run smoothly.

Are you talking about the Windows auto update? You should really look for the latest drivers yourself. Windows is really bad at finding drivers for you.

Really? yeah, that's precisely the thing I'm talking about, but windows 7 autoupdate thing says I already have the newest drivers.

I'll try to do it manually and see what happen, thanks for your advice.

You can find your HD drivers here:

I downloaded and installed the new drivers then tried to open the game and this is what I got.

@omarlobo:
Since the mentioned .dll-file doesn't seem to be part the Amnesia demo I guess that there is a corrupted runtime or something like that. I recommend to reinstall the following things:
- .NET Framework
- Graphics Driver
- Mainboard Driver
- Direct X 9 and (if you have suitable hardware and windows) 10 and 11.
- MSVC++ Runtime

Also check if Windows itself is up to date.

I hope it helps.
