Fatal Error When Opening Up Amnesia. - dailycreepypasta - 04-07-2015

I used to have no problem opening up Amnesia: TDD. Now, all of a sudden today I try opening it and I get a message something like:

Fatal Error: Renderer #0 Could Not Be Initialized. Please check if your graphics card is up to date.

I've checked the guides and I can't seem to find anything that works. My graphics card should be up to date. I've attached the hpl.log file to this thread.

Hopefully I can get a successful solution.

The game hasn't changed in that regard for years now. It has to do with your system. Most probably your drivers are very old.

Indeed. What are your specs? I'd reinstall/update anyway.

The drivers are certainly old because:

a) Nvidia 7000 series cards haven't been supported for years
b) Newer drivers mention the OpenGL version followed by Nvidia

I don't know why, but sometimes it lets me play the game, and sometimes it doesn't. And do I actually have to buy new drivers or can I update them somehow?

You go to nvidia.com to download new drivers (free).

Your graphics card is likely not supported and incapable of running the game.
