Ever since I upgraded from my XP Pro to Windows 7 Ultimate and added in a new graphics card, I have been having trouble playing INS. Every other Source engine game loads normally but INS is the only game that would load to the splash screen but it would not show the selection screen like "Find a server" or "options". I'm just stuck with the main photo of the Insurgent & U.S. Soldier while the theme music plays in the background.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Steam 3 times and same problem with INS while the rest of my games work.

I believe the combo of Windows 7 Ultimate and my newly installed GeForce GTX 260 card is causing some kind of conflict.

Anyone here heard of this happening to their systems? I need some pointers on how to get around this little hiccup. Thanks.
 
yes ,I had the same issue one time and fixed it by turning off the in game steam notifications. worth a try anyway.
 
Are you sure that The menu is not way up in the top left corner, sometimes it does it to me and I can't always click on the option I want.

Click to expand...

No, its phantom menu buttons. When I mouse over where it is supposed to be it makes a audio confirmation that I did so.
 
Ok, got it fixed. Problem was that the game was being confused with my dual monitor setup. I had to set my 32inch LCD as the main and only monitor on Nvidia settings and then start the game up. When I start the game up, I then set the proper resolution settings for the 32inch LCD. After that I did a test game to see if it runs fine...and it did.

All I have to do is setup my Admin ID again and apply it to the steamapps folder.
 
i have a similar problem i am going to instal xp back later tonight or tomorrow so i can play ins again
 
Hey i had that problem!

1)Uninstall Steam and then Re-install it
2)De-frag the game chache
3)Turn off the steam notifications
4)Kill some Insurgents!


Good luck hope this works for you it worked for me! :)
