Hi, I'm trying to run the Steam version of Fallout: New Vegas and after the first loading screen, I only see a black screen. The game doesn't. I havent played my fallout nv in a few months and went to play it recently and it starts up fine as far as the game goes, but i get just a black screen, i can hear the menu music and even the main menu start so the game isnt crashing it just doesnt show anything. I am at my wits end, I could not.

I know this is an old thread but since google sent me here I'm going to post my solution.I went into properties and unchecked an option that closed media files when not the focus application.Apparently, if u alt+tab while rendering, or simply switch to another application, then the media file will be closed and black spot will be rendered.So uncheck that i all ready did that to it did't help i only have audio and no video,i use a HP compaq 8510pintel core 2 duo cpu t7100 @ 1,80 Ghz4.00G ramwindow's 7 64bitsand i have all the ne driver installed but nothing helps.
