Black Screen in Windows 7 - Pantalla en negro con Windows 7

[Ramshu]

The problem is that starting the game and the screen goes black, i have this same problem with some "old game" as the Commandos, the Abe's Odysee ...

Until recently I had Windows XP and worked well, what surprises me is that on the website of the store makes it compatible with Windows 7.

My current system is:
S.O: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Motherboard: Gigabyte MA790FX-DQ6
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400 +
Graphics card: Ati Radeon HD 2900 XT (Catalyst 10.6)
Memory: 4GB Kingston 800mhz DDR Ram

-----------------------------------------------------------------

El problema es que inicio el juego y se pone la pantalla en negro, tengo este mismo problema con algunos "juegos antiguos" como los Commandos, los Abe's Odysee...

Hasta hace poco tenia Windows XP y funcionaba correctamente, lo que me extraña es que en la pagina de la tienda pone que es compatible con Windows 7.

Mi sistema actual es:
S.O: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Placa base: Gigabyte MA790FX -DQ6
Procesador: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+
Tarjeta gráfica :Ati Radeon HD 2900 XT (Catalyst 10.6)
Memoria: 4GB Ram DDR 800mhz Kingston

Have you checked in the task manager when this happens to see if the game is still running? It runs fine for me on Win7 64. Nothing wrong with your rig either that I can see.


Start with the usuals:
Verifing the game cache

Check to see that DEP, your Antivitus, or firewall isn't blocking the games exe from running. If so, grant exceptions for it.

Insure DX9 is installed. I know Win7 uses 10/11 but you still need DX9 for older games to run.

If, in the "task manager" the game is running, is more, I hear the sound of the game and I can not "move" on their menus.

The DEP is configured only for Windows programs and services.

The antivirus is Avast! 5 Inactivated and I have not solved anything.

Using the "dxwebsetup" tells me this date at the top, not if you mean this ...

Trying things I've discovered that if I disconnect and connect the monitor, if I see the game, it's like to send him to another screen, but the only catalyst I get a screen.

By the way I am using 1920x1200 resolution, not whether this will have something to do.

------------------------------------------------------------

Si, según el "administrador de tareas" el juego sigue funcionando, es mas, escucho el sonido del juego y me puedo "mover" por sus menús.

El DEP esta configurado solo para los programas y servicios de Windows.

El antivirus es Avast! 5 y desactivandolo tampoco he solucionado nada.

Usando el "dxwebsetup" me dice que esta actualizado al tope, no se si te refieres a esto...

Probando cosas he descubierto que si desconecto y conecto el monitor, si veo el juego, es como si lo mandara a otra pantalla, pero en el catalyst solo me aparece una pantalla.

Por cierto estoy usando la resolución 1920x1200, no se si esto tendrá algo que ver.

When you run in windowed mode if I work, is more games that give me this problem, I managed to get me work in windowed mode.

How far this can occur? I suppose they are problems with the resolutions, but no idea how to fix ...

---------------------------------------------------------------

Al ejecutarlo en modo ventana si me funciona, es mas los juegos que me dan este problema, los que he conseguido poner en modo ventana me funcionan.

¿A que se puede deber esto? Supongo que son problemas con las resoluciones, pero ni idea de como solucionarlo...

Has probado a actualizar los drivers de la grafica?

Están actualizados a tope.
