You probably need to reinstall PR again and if those errors occur again, please take screenshots of them and post them here, so we can fix the underlying issues.

Ok, start the game in a window :) That can be found in your options (graphics) menu in the launcher

Edit: Also please stop PMing me your replies as well, I'll look at the thread when I have a chance, your PMs do not speed up the process.

If you have any type of overlay program running, you need to completely shut it down before playing PR.
TS3 overlay, OVERWOLF overlay, RAPTR ovelay, Skype overlay, etc.

Can you please post your system specs ...
Start PRLauncher->Support button->"Copy to Clipboard" button
Paste everything in this thread.

Sorry I forgot to respond. His CPU is super old and the black screen was just PRlauncher trying to hook into PR.exe, which took about 1-2 minutes. I monitored through task manager and left it to do its thing, a couple of minutes later, boom, PR :)

Check task manager while it's on the black screen, if the processes are still consuming ~50-100% of the CPU, just wait and it'll work eventually. I've remote accessed two peoples' PCs and that was the issue both times.

Your "AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ (Physical: 2, Logical: 2)" is from 2005-2007, a dual core with only 2 GHz and only 2 ? 512 KB L2 cache, quite old dual core, so Psyrus is MOST probably right in his explanation.

Slow for PR.

Also your 2.5 GB RAM memory are not much, just might fit the needs, or just not, at least 3 GB or 4 GB are best for PR.

Wha graphics card do you have? Not included in your system information (If you didn't know yet, open PR launcher, then go "support", then click "copy to clipboard" for system information, then paste here.).
