RAGE crashes on launch

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 8:57 pm

Hey i preordered this game for pc and was looking foward to it for months but when i installed it and launched it, it went into the bethesda logo at the start and crashed almost instantly and despite all the updates for the game and drivers the same still occurs. Im guessing it has something to do with my switchable graphics but would really like a solution to this ongoing problem my notebook specs are:
HP Pavillion dv7-6195us -
2nd gen intel i7 quad core 2ghz processor
8192MB DDR3 SDRAM
windows 7 home premium(64 bit)
Radeon HD 6770M switchable graphics

Im not able to get many games so i will be very greatfull for some help to fix this.

Have you gave this a try? :: Intel? Driver Update Utility Graphics

http://www.intel.com...detect/graphics

That should scan your system and find any new/update drivers for chipsets on laptops, switchable graphics included.

In your case have a look here:
