Hi All

Was hoping to get some assistance in working out why my worms revolution through stream is not working.

Issue is as follows:
When i start the game it makes my screen go black, in this screen i cannot do anything (computer is still responsive). I cannot close it down using task manager, alt + F4 or any other method i know. There is no sound or movement on the screen, its just black. Due to this it forces me to reset my computer via the restart button.

Info that might be useful

Im on windows 7 64 bit
NVIDIA GEFORCE GT 430
Intel core I5 2380P CPU @ 3.10GHZ
8 GB of RAM
service pack 1

Things i've tried.
Updating graphics card
Verifying integrity of the steam game
altering default graphics via my NVIDIA control panel

I did email the worms support address but sadly got no where after sending my dxdiag (if you want me to post it here let me know)

I've read around and it seems some other people are having the same issues but i've not managed to find a solution.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks

hey again

sadly still having the same issue, getting rather disappointed. I've been emailing the support email address daily trying to get some response with the requested information but i've not been getting any answers apart from the initial, check your graphics driver, check steam etc...

Is there another site i may be able to get assistance from that anyone is aware of?

Do you have a codec pack installed?

do you play other games without issue? when you say startup? do you even get to the main menu to start a match first before getting the black screen? or do you get that the second you launch the game?

Try updating/changing your sound drivers...
