Black screen(1)Category: Technical SupportAugust-19-2014 12:02 AM PDT (8 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Whenever i launch Diablo 3, it just gives me a black screen and then the cursor, im not really sure what the problem could be, my drivers are not out of date, i already checked that, and i know my graphics card can handle the game, and so can everything else inside of my PC. But when i launch the game, it just gives me the same black screen over and over, and when i click in random places its as if the game is running, i just cant see it.Please help.

Gnerdrage,

You're looking in the wrong place for the D3Prefs.txt file actually, it's in your My Documents\Diablo III folder.

Using a text editor like Notepad, change either or both of these lines if they exist.

DisplayModeWindowMode "0"
Vsync "0"

to

DisplayModeWindowMode "1"
Vsync "1"

Save the file and try the game again now.
