Hi,

I've just tried to run TRU for the first time. Menu loads up fine, but when I start the game, I cant see anything...just and outline of lara's head and thats about it.

I'm running:

Vista 64 bit
4Gb RAM
320Gb HDD
ATi 3850HD Pro Radeon

I meet all the required spec...any ideas?

someone mentioned something about not being supported for 64 bit machines...could that be it?

thanks
Sunny

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Microsoft Windows XP (admin rights required)/
Microsoft Windows Vista (admin rights required)

Well, it's a thought to start you started on the right path, especially with a "shared" PC? ;)

thought so....I'm running an ATi HD 3850 Radeon. Are you running an ATi card to?

I had this same problem with Assassins creed to, UBI soft told me the game was not supported in Vista 64 bit platform which was bull****.

actually scratch that....found a work around.


do this Xone, start the game, then press the windows key on your keyboard, which will get you into windows, then select Tomb Raider from the taskbar and run it again and it works!!

Try enabling AA, I read about someone else doing this and fixing it for him. Also, are you using the 8.11 catalyst? Always a good idea to use the latest drivers.
