I have just installed the game on a new computer. When I start the game, all I get is a black screen. I can hear the music playing and I can see my mouse cursor. When I click on the screen, I can hear when I hit a menu.

Lodeye,

Can you post some information about your computer? You can find this information in the Direct X Diagnostic Tool:

Click on Start
Click on Run
Type in: dxdiag (In Vista, type dxdiag in the search field)
Hit Enter or OK

Click on the Save All Information button at the bottom, and create a dxdiag text file, and copy and paste it ALL here.

Could you also post your D3Prefs.txt file? It's located in the My Documents\Diablo III folder.

Arinchai,

Could you try enabling vertical sync?

You can do that by editing the D3Prefs.txt file.

Change this line

Vsync "0"

to

Vsync "1"
