stuck on black screen with cursor and game music

[Exorween]

Hello everyone, impossible to launch the game, I launch the game via steam and when the game launches, I get stuck on a black screen with the music of the game and nothing happens.

I reinstalled the game several times, the same for steam and my graphics drivers.
Anti-virus On/off
Nothing solves the problem

 

I thank you in advance

Usually this is caused by an outdated graphics card driver, you'll want to use a program called DDU in safe mode to cleanly uninstall the driver, reboot and then install a fresh driver. You can post a log to pastebin.com (make sure to set it public) and give the link here.

 

Paste this into your run box to find logs: %appdata%/7daystodie/logs

I've also seen this happen when you've selected GL Core rendering on a card that fully supports DX12.

And certain mods that require EAC off will show a black screen.
