jasignhagj Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I'ts possible your graphics card just can't handle med. graphics, although it's unlikely on a computer with w7. Can you post your specs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jernlov Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 It has an Intel GMA. I have no idea what the requirements for RuneScape's medium detail are but it is probably choking. Steam | Soup | Last.fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sildenafil Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 you should try reinstalling your java Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sbrideau Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Intel GMA... Probably not strong enough to have it to more than min settings. What is your processor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Perhaps try a different renderer. eg Software instead of OpenGL or DirectX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasignhagj Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Intel HD graphics should run that easily. I was expecting something like the old Intel GMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Observer Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 You sure you have the latest graphics drivers installed as well as Java drivers? P.S. Firefox 4 is out now. You can try that. And if you can, try different browsers including the downloadable client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it automatically installs from version 3.6.X -> 4. I had to manually upgrade mine. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) As for Java, it usually asks you on your taskbar whether or not you want it updated, but sometimes these settings can be set so that it doesn't automatically update. Did you by any chance try any other browsers? It can help minimize the problem to being Java or something related to that rather than your browser.

skillsboost Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hi, I have a similar problem. When I am at the resource dungeon in mining guild (the one that has 3 runites....), I often get a black screen that forces me to close that page, therefore I need to reload the game (in fact, I usually have 2 other separators ready to login....). I use W7, Firefox4, a geoforce9300. Before (with same problem) I was on Win XP and a previous Firefox version. I also tried with Chrome. Happens the same. Direct X is on. I do not hop worlds. Usually I stay in one world and wait for runite to show up while I do other things. The situation reported only occurs IN THERE and it happens frequently. Bad english is due to the fact that it is not my mother tongue. Apologies. Any ideas or sugestions are very much welcome. Thank you in advance.

jasignhagj Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Weird, I experienced the exact same problem in the resource dungeon in the normal mine. You should file a report with jagex, saying that other players are experiencing the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That_Brown_Kid Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I have the same problem. Try running less applications. Update java and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillsboost Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Seems that the resource dungeon happens to more people. As I mentioned it does only occur in that place. General RS game works fine. I will be checking the RS website again (tech probs) and if anything appears I'll let you know. Otherwise I'll try a report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillsboost Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Regarding resource dungeon problem I have got a reply from RS foruns which I copy to here: "Switching to OpenGL will stop this from happening, i guarantee it :) OpenGL is laggier though :| DirectX has blackscreened in there ever since it came out, and Jagex have supposedly been "investigating the issue" the whole time :( " Let's see if it works ! i'll keep you posted.

skillsboost Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I tested the resource dungeon solution and it worked. Problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
