PA Grey screen and crash

Every time I try to load up a planet my screen goes grey and PA crashes. I'm retarded so let me know if there's a file a should have linked.

welcome to the forum

Can you please provide your dxdiag.txt? Instructions are in my signature below.

Here, I got it.

Thre is something weird with your drivers dates:

Code:

Card name: AMD Radeon HD 7640G
Driver File Version: 8.17.0010.1247 (English)
Driver Version: 13.251.9001.0
Driver Date/Size: 6/10/2014 00:52:28, 1318552 bytes

Try to completely remove old drivers via Windows Control Panel and then install latest one from AMD website:
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows 8 - 64#amd-catalyst-packages

Sorry, I'm retarded how do I remove old drivers?

Download the new driver and run it. It will first uninstall the old driver and then you can continue installing the new one. Also this AMD knowledge base article for Win 8. http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/catalyst-windows-install.aspx#8

AMD installers are crap. They usually fail to remove old drivers completely. :-(

You should see them in "Add/Remove Programs" in Windows Control Panel.

I can't find the drivers in the add or remove programs thing. I think it might be because I'm running windows 8.

Try this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows-8/uninstall-change-program or http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/catalyst-windows-install.aspx#8 to uninstall the driver and reinstalled.

The easiest way to uninstall catalyst is through their installer which is what Windows uses to uninstall or install it.

The Add/Remove Programs hasn't been in since Win XP. Now it's called Programs and Features in the Control Panel. (but probably not Windows 8/8.1)

Alright I got it to work. Thanks for all the help.
