blank screen with an unexpected error has occurred

Post by Pcman137 »

Hey guys

Tried to play Factorio last night but it is loading a blank screen with an unexpected error has occurred. I have spent the remainder of the night and the entire morning looking for fixes to this problem but have been unsuccessful. i have also reinstalled the game (I am using the steam release) to no affect as well as updating my graphics drivers which has also not worked. I have attached the current log file. Please can anyone help??
