Alright so I open the Demo up in steam and i get the settings menu. I choose my settings and then the screen goes black and blackbox or whatever pops up with a message saying

Amnesia.exe started an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module <UNKNOWN> at 001B:00000000

Then when i open it up again it says

Last settings crashed the game, falling back to defaults.

Here is the log

Can I not run the game?!

(It said i didnt made a new post so im trying it again.

I've reinstalled the driver again. Still, its the exact same story.

The problem is " Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family".

This chipset is too weak to run the game.

i have the same problem is there a way to fix it?

No sorry, that Intel chip is below minimum requirements.

I have the same problem except mine is with the actual game.
