Could be any number of things that may cause black screensGame Glitch - have you tried reloading a previous save to see if the same thing happensCard heat - try checking the CPU and GPU fan and heatsink and clean with compressed air if necessaryWhat is your power supply specifications ? How old is the power supply ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swordsman5 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Should there be a video clip there? Maybe it didn't initiate properly or the clip is corrupted and needs reinstalling/replacing. I'd try playing through to that point again and see if it occurs a second time, you might also be able to r/click and skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delmar89 Posted July 2, 2011 Author Share Posted July 2, 2011 Hi guys tried all that currently with developers. Thanks 4 your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadthesax Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Hi guys ! I got exactly the same problem at the same moment of the game, I was hoping the 1.3 patch to fix it, but it didn't... It's really anoying because I just can't continue the game... It's part of the main quest. I tried to reload the game a lot of time. Tried to go at the other edge of the map and come back. So if someone manage to get rid of that problem, it would be great ! Thanks a lot fror reading me, a I appologize for my english, which should be a bit awful.

BarefootWarrior Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 This happened to me as well. I ended up rebooting my system and that took care of the problem. have no clue why, but, I can say that my video card was running pretty hot at the time too. It did continue on to the cut scene and I didn't have any more issues. I also have times where the scene just stops and the audio starts stuttering, everything locks up. This is usually when the game goes to a cut scene. I have to reboot when this happens. :whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastBlackCat Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 (edited) I've had this happen to me four or five times during the game, and now that I'm thinking about it, it's usually happened when I've been playing a long time, so the suspect in my case is probably card heat. When I've exited out, left for a few minutes, then reloaded, it played out. Edited July 21, 2011 by FastBlackCat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadthesax Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Then, I don't think it's some kind of heating issues. Because I already had some of this and the symptoms were differents. Also because I just launch the game just ahead Henselt's tent, and going in directly. It's something weird that seems to happened to some persons, as Delmar89, or others that I had read throught the internet. And it recurently happened at this quest, so it looks like there's a problem... Here, it's look like the cinematic is just not loading. I mean, there's a black screen that can't be removed by pressing Rclick. But I can move and hearing Geralt moving, or taking his sword and fighting against some people (still black screen). But I can't die or lose.Then I can still return to the desktop to close the game which looks, according to the task manager, to respond. It seems to be blocked somewhere between the cinematic and the in-game phase. It's really annoying. Thanks for your help instead ! ;-)Still searching how to solve it though !

tommy5761 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 You might try downloading and installing the ATI catalyst 11.6b drivers (on a clean install) with the latest application profile (CAP 2 was the last i heard) as well as making sure you have the latest updates for your sound card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadthesax Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Then, I ttherried that, but it didn't work also. My drivers were the 11.5. Then, I had just tried something, remembering that I did talk to Henselt outside of his tent just after he told me "blabla comme see me at my tent this night blabla" and I thought it could be the origin of the problem. So I loaded my savegame just after removing the curse and it worked. So maybe the problem's cause is the fact to talk with him before; or loading way before made the overall work... Thanks all for the differents answers ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
