Amnesia Black Box - wifidavid - 08-14-2012
Hi there, I've just started playing Amnesia. I get up to the part where you mix 4 bottles of chemicles in the laboratory, decide to tak a break and shut my laptop off, and when I turn it back on to run Amnesia I get an error. Here's the picture I print-screened:

Computer specs

Gateway NV55S05u
AMD Quad-core Processor A8-3500M
AMD Radeon HD 6620G for graphics card

I've updated my drivers according to this thread: http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-11183.html
Any help is appreciated, I'd really like to get back to playing this awesome game.

This is the penumbra section, I'll move your post over to the Amnesia forum.
From where did you get the game?
RE: Amnesia Black Box - wifidavid - 08-14-2012
Thanks for moving it, and I am using my friend's steam account

If you want help please attach a DXDIAG and an HPL.log

Don't think that's the reason for why it's not working after an hour of playing...

Anyway, attach hpl.log from your documents/amnesia folder.

The game is not from Steam. Where did you get it?
RE: Amnesia Black Box - wifidavid - 08-15-2012
What do you mean? I used my friend's steam account and just started downloading. I had this Black Box error before but I was using an Intel laptop...I switched to AMD, and I was not expecting it to come back
Edit: Okay, whenever I continue on my old profile I seem to get the error. Making a new account doesn't seem to give me the error...
RE: Amnesia Black Box - plutomaniac - 08-16-2012
The game is not bought... Shame on you...
