Pink screen

[Haejiyuu]

Hello

I have a problem running the game - it starts, but in strad of loading i get a black and pink screen changing after a few seconds.

I can hear the music, and when the game loads the menu all I can see is a pink screen. The menu seems to be working though, because if I actually click something I can hear the game respong - but the pink screen is there all the time.

I would really like to play the game (just played the whole first part for the second time to refresh my memory) so I am asking for help.

DXdiag file attached along with a screen

Looking forward to your help
Mariusz

Edit: I'm trying to run the game with all the DLC's

Is anyone competent even reading this forum? 

I'm trying to find a solution on my own, but I pretty much run out of ideas - the game is verified on steam, I downloaded it twice from scratch, all the drivers are up to date, alt-tabbing and alt-entering doesn't do a thing except for the normal functions. Any one got any other ideas on what to try?

I've seen notes about changing the game resolution by editting the .ini file, but I just cannot pinpoint it location, anyone tried it?

Its pretty quiet hear these days, I am not sure they are updating anymore.  I sometimes get the issue when I am using editing software when it is trying to render 4k video, and my GPU runs out of RAM.   Maybe post your specs, are they in line with the minimum?

The whole DXdiag file is posted with the original post. As far as I know they are - moreover, the game did run before the disk change (I changed from normal to SSD) and system reinstal.

So a few things - you have a AMD GRFX card?  6600M or 6700M I think yeah?  I checked the AMD site:

https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/gpu-615

There is a possible mismatch with your Grfx card and DirectX 12 ... but that is a longshot.

The other thing is that it looks like the internal Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 is running the displays?  I get this from this line here:

Is it possible you need to go into your bios and set it so that the grfx loads the AMD cards as the main Grfx device?

Edit:

Or maybe you need to reinstall the AMD grfx drivers or update them?

Basicly this model has two graphic cards ... One used for low energy mode - this is like brwosing internet and such, the second one  6600M/6700M is used for gaming. I guess this might be the source of the problem, I will chceck in bios if I can set the  6600M/6700M graphics to be used as main device. But this will have to wait for the evening

The drivers are up to date, I made a system reinstall (due to my old disk dying) and I have donloaded the latest drivers.
