Default Black Screen in Fullscreen Mode. Help? - 07-13-2012, 04:32 AM

Uh, hi!
When launching PSO2 in fullscreen mode, it launches into a black screen. I can make it through all of the opening videos with sound (SEGA, NVIDIA, opening video, etc.), but the screen is entirely black. On top of that, I can't come out of the game. Alt+Tab and Win+Tab don't work, and CTRL+Alt+Del only work until I go back to the desktop. The only way to leave the game is to completely shut my computer down. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game, updated/reupdated all of my drivers and nothing seems to work. I've resorted to playing the game in windowed mode, but I don't get the full effect I'd like to.

If anyone has any tips or tricks as to how to go about fixing it, or if you need to know certain specs, just ask and I'll provide what information I can.

Thank you so much in advance, I appreciate the help!

Look like you have the proper spec, so it is likely a software issue.

You were able to get pass gameguard so it isn't anti virus related.

It is most likely graphic driver related like many other problems on this forum. I personally would try a few different graphic drivers from previous date and see if it work.
