Hi All,

I am currently playing Splinter Cell Blacklist on my PC.

When I launch the game, i get the following notification:

When i continue and start playing the game , there is no problem at all.

However when i minimize it to do some other stuff and then switch back to it, i get this on my screen.

After that no matter how much time i wait it doesnt start.

Any advice???

 

Thanks in advance.

Are you running the latest drivers? This problem was present before or does it just started? 

The first time i ran it. And yes latest drivers are installed.

 

Is the game legit? The R9 series shouldn't have any problem with running this game.

No  :P

Well, that could be the problem. Devs usually patch games if they don't work with a GPU. Since the game is not legit, all I can say- get a copy with all the updates or buy the game. It's super cheap.

That could be the issue, if it is not a legit game there is always something going wrong, illegally downloading pirated games may work for a couple of hours as a "Free demo" but most of the time you face an issue along the way which makes the game unplayable. I only once downloaded a game from TPB it stopped working 3/4 into the story, I got so angry and I decided to buy the full version from steam, it ended up being a great game.

if it doesn't have the newest update, I can see why it's doing that.
