Re: Game sits on black screen when launching

@Hollow_BFamd , at website from amd !
there is also a KNOW ISSUES TOPIC at the site , same page from driver download for your serie.
In known issues they talk about black screen issues , maybe your a "victim to", but there seems to be a kind of work around, check it !

Dont forget to update your CHIPSET drivers !!

AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 22.5.1

check the release notes from that driver and look at KNOWN ISSUES

ps driver is for:
Windows 11 version 21H2
Windows 10 64-bit version 1809 and later <-- is your windows update ?

    @Hollow_BFKnown Issues
    Performance drop may be experienced while playing Fortnite with Multithreaded Rendering and DirectX® 11 API on some AMD Graphics Products such as the Radeon® RX 6900 XT Graphics.

    GPU utilization may be stuck at 100% in Radeon performance metrics after closing games on some AMD Graphics Products such as Radeon™ 570.

    Display may flicker black during video playback plus gameplay on some AMD Graphics Products such as the Radeon™ RX 6700 XT.

    Using Radeon™ Super Resolution on 2560x1600 resolution displays may produce a system hang. A temporary workaround is to set the display Scaling Mode to Full Panel.

    Enhanced Sync may cause a black screen to occur when enabled on some games and system configurations. Any users who may be experiencing issues with Enhanced Sync enabled should disable it as a temporary workaround.

    Radeon performance metrics and logging features may intermittently report extremely high and incorrect memory clock values.

  • @Rokebo73  yh my game opens but then sits on black screen and after reinstall i dont get the security prompt to allow the network/anti cheat, im thinking it might be due to my ram but then this the only game i have issues with, but at this point im just confused because the game worked fine for me during beta and the time i played after release before i unistalled to play other games

    @Hollow_BFyou mean after reinstall there is no message from FIREWALL/NETWORK to allow it ?
    Then delete ORIGIN / STEAM /BF2042 / EAC from firewall in windows security !
    Reboot and try again !
    Always install ORIGIN / STEAM / BF2042 / EAC AS ADMIN

    ps after firewall stuff check virus scanner,  can block it to , disable virusscanner before ya start the game !!

    Disconnect any other monitor (use only 1 monitor, just to try)

  • @Rokebo73 didnt work unistalled my norton 360 cus it controlled everything secruity wise, and once i went into allowed apps removed them and then tried steam was only thing that came up with prompt, origin wasnt even on the list, so i manually added it and battlefield and still no luck

    @Hollow_BF1 monitor only ? and nothing to do with text below ?
    Enhanced Sync may cause a black screen to occur when enabled on some games and system configurations. Any users who may be experiencing issues with Enhanced Sync enabled should disable it as a temporary workaround.

    Right click your desktop, and click AMD Radeon Software (or press ALT+R) At the bottom of the left-hand side, click on Radeon Enhanced Sync to disable it We already have a fix planned for an upcoming release and are working to get that out as soon as we can, but please follow the above instructions so you can get back to gaming. Thanks for this.

  • @Rokebo73  sorry for slow reply but was getting fustrated with it a gave up for a while, i always have my radeon enhanced sync off, and even with one monitor same thing happens
