Demo Black Screen of Death
« on: September 21, 2009, 02:40:24 PM »
I have tried to install the BC demo on another computer and i have run into a strange problem.

i get the Black screen of death as soon as it starts :wtf

i dont know why because i didn't even go into the game files or change anything at all  :mad

i have tried to get a console report but it must not work on the demo because running in test mode doesn't let me view the console report window

any advice here?

i have tried it without test mode, i just chaged it to that temporarily to see if i could get a console report

that computer has python installed on it, would that make a difference?
