Gas = Black screen

[HomeScillet]

Title basically says it all. Once I step into gas / go outside in cabin fever, my screen goes black.
I've already tried to create the .reg file that contains;

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Cl ass\{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-*08002BE10318}\0000]
"~Engine.exe"=dword:00000001

But alas, I am still getting a black screen.
Some decent help would be much appreciated.

If you already tried the tutorial Combat Arms - Forum and it doesn't work for you, then you might want to look at options on changing your GFX card.

Have you done any rez editing?

Fire will do it to you too. You need a dedicated GPU to process the effects. Pick up a cheap $40 card at walmart.

I have the same issue. The forums claim to have a fix. Never worked for me.

graphics processing unit!

Does a GPU make the game run smoother? I play on Low quality, would a GPU change that?

Yes, depending on which graphics card you get, you would get a better game play at higher graphic settings. Although, for Combat Arms, you don't need a heavy duty one.

Have you tried to update your graphics software depends on what card you have (amd, intel, nvidia, etc). Go on their website look up your card and download the latest driver. I hope that helps! If you need help pm or quote me on this post.
