I'm running windows 7 on my laptop with an intel core i5. I tried uninstalled and reinstalled the beta hoping it was a download prob with steam... but it was for naught, still having the same issue...
Having the same issue but I haven't received a crash notice. After the "obsidian presents: Pillars of Eternity" the black screen & nature sounds just continue forever. Ugh, really wanna play this beta...
