Sirocco Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 When I start a scenario, whether it's in a campaign or battle, the screen goes blank. I CTRL-ALT-DEL and resume the application, and then I can briefly see the pre-scenario options before it goes blank again. If I position the pointer around where I think the OK button will be I can fumble around and eventually I'll hit it and the game proceeds fine. The video card is a GeForce 7900 GS. I've updated the drivers but that hasn't fixed it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirocco Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 I went to www.nvidia.com and downloaded the driver from there. Click "Download drivers", then in the first list select "Graphics driver", in the second "Geforce 7 series" and in the third whatever OS you're using. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Which Windows version are you both running and what version of CMSF are you using, the recently released download (1.01) ? What option do you have set for the resolution ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirocco Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 I'm using XP, SP2, and the BFC download, 1.1. I tried 1024x768 and 1152x864. It's the same with both. The game runs fine, as long as I can find the OK button to click through to the briefing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Try adjusting/disabling your Anti-Aliasing and Anistropic Filtering settings in your video drivers. See if that changes anything. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirocco Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 I turned them both off, but still black screen. I encountered the same problem when I finished the last of the tutorial scenarios, and it also happens as soon as I click the QB button on the main menu. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirocco Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 It seems this isn't a game related problem. When I run the NVIDIA display optimisation wizard it does the same thing. The screen goes black until I CTRL-ALT-DEL, then it appears, then disappears again as soon as I resume the application. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirocco Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 I tried changing the refresh rate and that fixed it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
