Blank screen when loading games?
Ok so I'm trying to play games on my PC, recently installed a new graphics card ATI HD5770 I think. All the drivers are up to date and so is my directx but when I try loading one up, all I get is a black screen or a black screen with the "loading" cursor :/

Any halp? (Running XP)

Quite a few games are making Vista the minimum nowadays - so while you may have luck with XP it might be worth considering an upgrade to 7 at some point.
