Hi,

got a slight problem. All of my HOI 2 games do not work any more. Here is the problem:

The sound works but the graphics do not. I get a grey screen and a black square on the top left of the monitor.
No Menus pop up.

My stats:
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 updated.
Intel(R) Core (TM) i5-2320 CPU@3.00 GHz
Memory RAM 4 GB
GeForce GT 520 updated.

All the games worked before without a problem. I reinstalled the games several times and no success.
Thanks
 
I have the same problem, except that I get a black screen. Same thing with CK1 and probably VC2 although I haven't tried the latter. I suspect a graphics driver update is the culprit. I've tried fiddling around with the monitor settings, but to no avail. Windowed mode doesn't work either.

My stats:
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Service Pack 1
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.8GHz
Memory RAM 6gb
GeForce GTX 980, driver version 353.62
DirectX 11

EDIT: Updating my GeForce GTX 980 to the latest driver version (355.60) fixed the problem.
