Sound loads but no menu (black screen)

[kin]

Hi. I would like help with this problem.

When I start the game everything seems to load fine. The sound starts up. The mouse appears on screen. Then nothing else.
The sound continues and I can move the mouse but no menu and no graphics appear. I can still click on the menu even though it's not visible! I found the quit button and found that the log file is working and it seems to say that everything is fine.

I'm running vista on a Asus Tablet PC (f1r series).
It has a intel based graphics card... (not so good)
I've updated all graphics drivers to current.
I've tried full screen and windowed.
I downloaded and installed the sound driver thingy..

Any ideas? Thanks for your support!!

Hi kin,

Sounds like you're encountering graphics problems. The game should run decently fine with on-board Intel graphics... can you provide more details about your machine (cpu type, clockspeed, Intel driver, OS version, etc)?

Thanks,
Dave

Thanks kin. I should also ask which version of Osmos are you running (listed in the lower-right corner of the 'Credits' screen) and where did you purchase it?
