Blank Screen On Game Launch

February 7, 2008 10:49:33 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I installed a fresh copy of windows last night updated directx, nvid drivers and sp2.
I'm running athlon 3500 64 single core 1 gig ram and 8600 gts. I had no problem on monday when i installed it it worked flawless. Only thing that is different now is that i have the newer nvid drivers. I had a older set i believe on monday when i installed it. when i launch the game it goes to black screen and just sits there I have to control alt delete out of it dont see anything on mini dump.

How long did you wait? It took a solid four or five minutes to launch the first time I tried.

After that it was much snappier.

I would say I waited 2 or 3 minutes maybe I can try that when i get home but i dont think thats the problem> But you never know If anyone else has ideas would help. I'm at work right now just trying to get ideas on things to try so hopefully I'll be able to play some tonight.
