Pretty much every game I try to open will open , change into directx mode and go into the black screen before the game and then tab out :/ and then if I try to tab in it just tabs me out again...

Console optimisations and how they will effect you | The difference between AMD cores and Intel cores | Memory Bus size and how it effects your VRAM usage |
How much vram do you actually need? | APUs and the future of processing | Projects: SO - here

Intel i7 5820l @ with Corsair H110 | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 1600Mhz | XFX Radeon R9 290 @ 1.2Ghz | Corsair 600Q | Corsair TX650 | Probably too much corsair but meh should have had a Corsair SSD and RAM | 1.3TB HDD Space | Sennheiser HD598 | Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro | Blue Snowball

Have you recently moved your gamefiles or reformatted the PC and used the old game instalations?

Yeah I did but the game that I'm trying to play is a fresh installation and I haven't had any issues with the games that I did re-use from an old installation.

Sometimes they do not like being moved due to the settings file that has your resolution saved and so on. Might wanna look up which files to delete ^^

Had this issue with a few games and I basically had to search for the file that saves your settings and delete it and it would work again ^^
