Graphics Error on Amnesia the Dark Descent - Cork - 03-18-2012
Sorry, if this has already been answered somewhere else on the forums, but I have searched for a bit and couldn't find anything relating to my problem.
I have the steam copy of Amnesia and, for a while, it worked perfectly fine. That is, until, a strange glitch started to occur: nothing will display.
The game will load up like normal, but, when it gets to the menu, only the menus itself displays.
Example Shown Here:

When I go to play the game, the sounds will work and I can tell I am moving around, but the graphics do not display. When I activate any of the menus, however, they will display and function. But I can't see any objects or any textures.
I have, on three separate attempts, verified the game cache to ensure that was not the problem.
I can also tell you that I have note modded the game in anyway.
However, I did move my entire steam library onto an external hard drive to save on space. However, this has not negatively affected any of my other games.
I use an Intel® HD Graphics Family graphics card running on Driver Version 8.15.10.2279

The same thing is happening to me too. However, this is happening when I just downloaded Amnesia. I even posted my problem on Yahoo Answers because I also thought no one else had the same problem.

The pictures from what I'm seeing on the menu and when the game starts are provided in my question. I also used Intel® HD Graphics Family, but I don't know the Driver Version (I'm not a big computer person and this is the first time I've ever downloaded a PC game).

It seems you have Windows 7 x64 and you downloaded the x86 driver. Make sure you select Windows 7 (64-bit) and download the latest driver.
RE: Graphics Error on Amnesia the Dark Descent - Cork - 03-18-2012
@ Errikka You downloaded an incompatible verison. Search for one that has windows7x64 in it's filename.
@plutomaniac I want to thank you for the redirect as my copy of the game is now working perfectly. I would also like to thank you for moving my topic to the correct forum.
RE: Graphics Error on Amnesia the Dark Descent - plutomaniac - 03-18-2012
Have fun playing the game!
RE: Graphics Error on Amnesia the Dark Descent - Erikkka - 03-18-2012
Thank you so much!! It finally works now, lol. I thought I bought the game for nothing.
