Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Whole Penumbra Series: Multiple Problems

Hi,

I've wanted to play my newly bought penumbra series for a while know, I bought it off steam for $10, all of them, and they have worked once or twice before, but I wanted to play them today, but to no avail, it did not work. Penumbra Overture and Black Plague just crashed on start up, and when I started requiem, it was an entire different story. My computer's contrast went up, and there is a buzzing sound coming from the speakers on my TV coming from the computer (Not the TV because I've tried turning on my PS3 on the same channel, and it didn't make the buzzing noise, and the contrast is normal.) I've tried restarting my computer, doesn't work, tried changing my Playback devices, still didn't work.

Windows 8 64 bit
Desktop

I have tried reinstalling, but the same thing happens.

My graphics drivers and OpenGL is all up to date.

So I've fixed the contrast and the buzzing issue, but none of the penumbra games will run still.

My best guess would be graphics card drivers issues. Can you try the Amnesia demo and see if that works? If it doesn't attach it's HPL.log (Documents\Amnesia\Main).
