I've been trying to get Blacksite Area 51 working for about a week now. I've tried every suggestion in the previous posts - changing resolution, editing ini files, uninstall/reinstall, applied the patches, not applied the patches, etc., etc., etc.

NOTHING WORKS. I still get a blue screen indicating an infinite loop from ati2dvag.dll

I've submitted two requests to Midway support and have gotten no response.

My PC is more than capable:
Intel Pentium E5300, 2gb RAM, 160gb HD, Sapphire Radeon HD 4830, Win XP Sp3, DirectX 9.x

All of my drivers are current - audio, video, bios, etc.

I can play Far Cry 2, TimeShift, GTAIV, Crysis, etc.
with absolutely no problems (in fact I can play them all at their highest settings!).

WHAT THE HELL????

Whoa there, newby!
Don't get so mad, jus because I don't know this!
But anyway, Blacksite is a very glitchy game. It does have a few problems.
I recommend buying it for PS3 or 360 instead of PC.

I don't know how it is on PS3, because I had to empty my PS3 hard drive.

But on topic,

I'm sorry I don't know. peace

Perhaps your drivers are not compatible? Trying rolling them back or completely uninstalling and then reinstalling them?

Hey thunder777 -

A lot of people have the same problem - checkout my topic and one other where everyone complains and Midway basically replies 'too bad sucker'.

I even contacted Tech Support and they won't deal with it.
They're hiding behind our newer graphics cards and saying they don't have to be compatible.

Never mind that the game is still for sale years after it was released!
How can it be compatible with anything now? It can't but they're still taking our money and ignoring us. It should be pulled from the market 'cause it SUCKS and they screwed us.
