The problem is that after a few minutes of playtime the screen just goes black. Not the whole screen but just the in-game graphics, the hud and driver names are all still visible. I also still can quit to the main menu into which the black carries over. After I quit and restart the game it's all back to normal but after a few minute of play the same problem appears. It can take up to 10 minutes for this to happen but for the last few tries this appeared in under 2 minutes. It happens both in single- and multiplayer. I'm not quite sure what triggers it because it happens on different graphic settings and doesn't matter if it's windowed or fullscreen. I suspect it might be a problem with the ATI card.
Here are some screenshots: in-game menu
specs:
- windows 7 64bit
- intel i7 860
- Radeon HD 5870 (this seems to be the same for another person having the same problem)
Would be great if there were a fix for this because at this state the game is pretty much unplayable for me.
