CaptainEras Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I get the first screen but when I press "play" all I get is a blank screen . . . and have to turn off my computer to get out of it. The drivers installed with the upgrade caused this so I manually upgraded to the latest Nvidia drivers, only to find the same problem. Uninstalled the latest drivers and installed the one before it . . .and no games worked. Went to reinstall the latest driver and the system didn't recognize it . . . fortunately, Geforce Experience managed to load it. So, all of my games except Warframe work on W10 with the latest Nvidia driver . . . What steps are being taken concerning Warframe and W10 ?

0 Cleesus Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Hmmm I know plenty of people play warframe on win10 without a problem or with minor ones. Im thinking this one could be specific to your computer, any other details? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 GhostShip20 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 As a suggestion, did you try to run Warframe under compatibility mode when you right click the game and go to properties and then to the compatibility tab? If that doesn't work, then I am not sure what is with your computer. I also have Nvidia drivers and will say that sometimes they do act up. I am using Windows 10 Enterprise but for me the game is running well. However, the only other thing you can do, well wait for that is, is for Warframe to support DirectX 12, although I don't see why there would be any conflict involving DirectX 11 or 10 even.

0 GhostShip20 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Just occurred to me, did you run the game with integrated graphics or high performance Nvidia processor? You can find that when you right click the game and go to run with graphic processor. I use high performance Nvidia processor which seems to keep the game running in a stable manner.

0 6KIRA9 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 when you upguard windows you keep everything installed right ?? if so maybe you need to re-install the game, if not then idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a GTX980 . . . I have Warframe in my Steam a/c so how can I find the compatibilty mode ? . . right clicking on the shortcut properties doesn't bring up that old familiar box ? At the moment there seems to be a large download taking place so will have to wait for that to finish before proceeding . .

0 TaylorsContraction Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Run the launcher as administrator if you haven't tried that. Worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment there seems to be a large download taking place so will have to wait for that to finish before proceeding . . Since you are using Steam, then there is probably a problem regarding that. This is why I don't have Steam because I know from countless research that more problems show up when using third-party software. As far as I know, whatever else was downloaded along with Warframe using Steam likely got either corrupted or something became missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 muzashi1963 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Strange, I updated to Windows 10 and let Win 10 choose the settings (i.e. no customization, express install) Not one problem. (except for a scanner driver that is not compatible, due to Epson not updating drivers) I don't use the Steam version. I used to, but I hate having to have that running in the background. As GhostShip20 has stated, perhaps try that if you cannot get the Steam version to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 CaptainEras Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) The 4hrs+ download just finished [ this download was in Steam not the Warframe launcher update we get through the shortcut], clicked shortcut to start game and another 1.6GB+ download started. I checked the folder in Steam and see that it has gone up from 9GB+ to 13.7GB . . .and with what is now downloading it will be 15.3GB, so can anyone tell me the size of their Wareframe folder, plz, because at the moment I feel as though I'm in some kind of update loop. I know Microsoft have put out all their seemingly altruistic reasons for why they are giving away W10 but dig around enough and you'll see one of the reasons is they are well short of beta testers across every scenario, so it's understandable that Warframe will react differently with different hardware. Add to that the discord between Microsoft methods and Nvidia protocols and we have a melting pot . . I endured 3 years of Vista Ultimate sorting itself so I'm used to this . . . everything comes good in the end.

0 CaptainEras Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 I might have a 15GB+ folder but at least the game is now working . . . I'd only just spent 160 plats on boosters so hey ho, lol . . No idea why the game felt it needed a separate 64bit download, unless it's something to do with W10, or Nvidia ?

0 TheWhitterMatter Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Yeah I'm actually having the same problem. After updating to Windows 10 I can't play the game. I've reinstalled the game, reinstalled steam and now I'm going through technical support to see If they can find a solution to my issue. The game barely runs on my laptop so I was just barely able to get on and tell my clan that W10 is screwing up my game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 NyxCrab Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I was having this issue too where whenever I started up the game after installing win10 it would just be a black screen. I fixed it by going to launch options and unchecking the "Fullscreen" option, then when I got in game changing "windowed" to "borderless window". It plays in fullscreen now and doesn't give a black screen upon start up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Abenoki Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 if youre using steam just verify the game files then run the launcher. Make sure you have the latest drivers and such aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sniperoth Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I had a problem before where the game will just crash for no reason every time I try to start a new mission. At first I thought it's my graphics card and tried updating the drivers (I even disabled SLI and removed the 2nd card just to be sure). Also did a complete re-install. No dice. Then I remembered that I recently upgraded to an audiophile DAC (I like music). I set the old sound card back to default, ran the game, and no crash. This might not apply to you, but what I'm trying to say is that the culprit might not be the most obvious one. Have you changed anything else on your system recently?

Always a good point . . . thinking outside of the box has frequently fixed a problem and at the moment W10 is still very much a beta as it tries to accommodate all mixes of hardware . ..

0 DxAdder Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 This is what I did: Turn off auto update in Windows 10. Goto the website guru3d and download this program: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html It will uninstall all drivers off the computer. Reboot and goto Nvidia site and download latest drivers (clean Install) Re-enable auto update (if you want ) This fixed all my problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
CaptainEras
I get the first screen but when I press "play" all I get is a blank screen . . . and have to turn off my computer to get out of it.
The drivers installed with the upgrade caused this so I manually upgraded to the latest Nvidia drivers, only to find the same problem.
Uninstalled the latest drivers and installed the one before it . . .and no games worked.
Went to reinstall the latest driver and the system didn't recognize it . . . fortunately, Geforce Experience managed to load it.
So, all of my games except Warframe work on W10 with the latest Nvidia driver . . .
What steps are being taken concerning Warframe and W10 ?
