Driver Date/Size: 1/22/2010 your drivers are way out of date, you should be able to find updates on HP's website or AMD's website

Just bought PA and it wont launch from anywhere. I verified my game files, made sure my graphics card was updated, and ran the directx runtime install and still cant/wont launch. I ran the game file within the PA folder and still wont run. Here is my dxdiag. Let me know what may be the solution.
You have desktop PC, but you still have integrated graphics enabled: Code: Name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 Device ID: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_0162&SUBSYS_84CA1043&REV_09\3&11583659&1&10 Can you upload few game log files for me so I can check what video card is used by game? Here is how-to: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/648814845443326834/ And anyway I recommend you to disable integrated graphics in BIOS to avoid issues.
I was able to find the game log files. Here is what I found. I also changed the settings in the bios. I also got a newer dxdiag from the one I sent before. I hope this helps.
Now proper card should be used. I suppose you met some Steam related problem now and there is two workarounds you need to try. First try to run game without Steam overlay: Right click the game in your Library -> Select Properties -> On the General tab, uncheck the box next to Enable Steam Community In-Game If this won't help try to run non-Steam version: https://store.uberent.com/Download/Install?titleId=4 Before you can use link above you probably will need to link your accounts here: https://uberent.com/user/linksteam Then log out and non-Steam launcher should work fine.
After running around the AMD website and Intel websites awhile for a fix my issues are non-solved, Give us a hand here. The problem i'm having is whenever i attempt to start up a game in PA after a couple seconds in the lobby the game crashes. Thanks.
this driver should fix your issue https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3712&DwnldID=23714&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Desktop graphics drivers&ProductProduct=3rd Generation Intel® Core™ Processors with Intel® HD Graphics 4000&lang=eng
Also if your playing using an intel hd 4000, i recommend setting your desktop resolution to 1280x768 or 1360x768 to play PA. The game uses the desktop resolution even when playing using fullscreen mode.
The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. :/ Why cant computers just sigh and give up and let us play PA.
You need download ZIP version of driver ("win64_153318.zip") from same page and then install it using this instruction: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/558749190911446231/
giantenemycrab22 - You have an M17xR4 laptop which should have both integrated intel graphics and a dedicated graphics chipset, specifically an AMD Radeon HD 7970M according to your dxdaig. The latest official drivers are here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers...leId=3204468755&languageCode=en&categoryId=VI http://www.dell.com/support/drivers...leId=3154960745&languageCode=en&categoryId=VI
Unfortunately as any laptop manufacturer DELL repack old drivers that likely won't work for PA, at least it's true for Intel one. Though here is how-to about getting latest AMD mobility drivers: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/558749190925676183/ Here in "Laptops and hybrid graphics" subsection video how-to about running PA on discrete graphics card: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/864980278116578701/
hi, iv been having the same problem with launching pa. my dxdiag is attached and iv tried everything in the forums and nothing worked. updated my drivers tried with and without steam still same problem. please help me i really wanna play
Unfortunately it's impossible to help you because of this: Code: Card name: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family Manufacturer: Intel Corporation Your laptop only have onboard (integrated on motherboard) graphics card which is way too old and slow to run this game.
