Modern computer games periodically come out in unfinished form. The developers then release the appropriate patches that fix the flaws that gamers have identified. Naturally, everyone is much more pleased when the game is published already in a finished form and does not need any improvements, but this happens very rarely. Therefore, be prepared for the fact that you will have to face certain inconveniences - especially for games that have just been released. First, they can have quite high system requirements which may not match the configuration of your computer. Also, the problem may lie in the game itself, but you can try to find more reasons in your own software. In any case, almost all problems are solved, so you have nothing to worry about. Next, you will learn about one of the most popular games released at the end of 2014, as well as about its problems. Many players report freezes, crashes and won't start. But this game is a real masterpiece. What to do for those who have not yet been able to play it due to any problems.
Alien: Isolation
Why should anyone try this project, even with Alien: Isolation freezing? The fact is that this project is made according to all the canons of the survival horror genre, but at the same time it tells the beloved story of Aliens. IN Lately computer games in this setting were not of high quality, so I am glad that at least one project turned out to be really worthwhile. So you play as daughter the main character the original films, which travels to the space station to find out the truth about what became of her mother. But there an unexpected and unpleasant surprise awaits her - the inhabitants of the station, more powerful androids, and most importantly, a xenomorph will hunt for her. Previously, they were used much more freely - the player could kill dozens of them. Here everything is close to the canon, and although there is only one stranger here, you cannot kill him. You can only scare him away, lure him into a trap, and so on, in order to buy yourself some time. But remember - a xenomorph learns from its mistakes, and it won't fall into the same trap twice. Therefore, run, hide, survive and have great pleasure from quality game in the known universe. But how do you do this if Alien: Isolation freezes? First you need to figure out what is the reason, and then solve the problem itself.
Compliance with system requirements
The first thing you need to check is the system requirements for Alien: Isolation. They are indicated both on the official website and on various gaming sources. You need to have operating system XP versions, at least a processor of at least 3.2 gigahertz, four gigabytes of RAM and one gigabyte of video card memory, and a certain amount of free hard disk space, except for 35 gigabytes, which are required directly for the game itself. Read these requirements carefully and compare them with what your equipment has. If your computer has less power, then the reason is obvious - it is simply not designed to run such a game. You will have to update your computer, buy the necessary elements for it to make the game work. Of course, it is desirable that the system requirements of Alien: Isolation are not only met, but exceeded - then you guarantee yourself a pleasant pastime.
Installing Drivers
Very often, problems with freezes and crashes from computer games are associated with the drivers for the video card. If they are too old and you haven't updated them for a long time, then we can say that you have found the reason why your Alien: Isolation game is freezing. So what can you do about it? In fact, everything is quite simple - you just need to find out which version of the video card is installed in your computer, then go to the website of the manufacturer of this video card and find the model you need on it. And there you can find the drivers that you need to download and install. If you have a built-in video card (such as on most laptops), then you go to the laptop manufacturer's website and find your model there - on its page there will be all the drivers for this model, among which you will need to select the video. If your Alien: Isolation freezes while loading, it might help. If not, go to the next item.
Additional programs
In most cases, computer games use additional software to run. And if your Alien: Isolation freezes at boot or does not start at all, then you need to check if the base distribution is installed on your computer. It includes Direct X, Microsoft. NET Framework and Microsoft Visual C ++. Install latest versions all these programs, and then try starting the game. This helps in many cases. But if even such a method turned out to be useless for you, then you will have to study the existing problem more deeply. You need to understand why Alien: Isolation is freezing, and then decide what you can do about it.
Big load on intro
The game has an intro video that puts a lot of stress on the computer. And if you are interested in the question of why Alien: Isolation freezes, then the answer may lie here. To test your guess, try turning off the intro and loading the game again. If no problems are found, then your computer could not cope with this video - just do not turn it on and enjoy playing Alien: Isolation - the PC version should function without problems and without an introductory video, and you can always watch it separately on the network.
Administrator rights
Sometimes this project does not freeze for players, but does not start at all. When launching the game Alien: Isolation, an error appears on the screen and there is nothing you can do about it. Of course, there can be many reasons, and most often you need to know the content of the error message in order to understand its causes. But even without delving into the topic, you can try to launch the game for a reason, but on behalf of the Administrator. In this case, many games start without errors, so this solution can be called almost universal. If it did not help you, then you will have to study the contents of the error message, on the basis of which you can privately look for a solution to the problem.
at startup
Many gamers are faced with an error inherent directly to this project. When you start the game, the screen turns black, the cursor changes to a playable shape, but nothing else happens. If this problem has not been fixed by any of the previous methods, then your monitor, for some unknown reason, is not suitable for this game in the current settings. But do not get upset before the time - you can fix everything if you start the game in windowed mode, and then select those monitor settings at which the game will function perfectly.
Waiting for the patch
One of the most common mistakes for this game is crashing. In the process, you may simply be thrown onto the Windows screen, and the game will close without saving. Unfortunately, you cannot solve this question in any way. But you should remember that Alien: Isolation is a completely new game, so you can hope that the developers will soon release a patch that will fix this flaw. Considering that a fairly large number of players have already filed complaints about this problem, the release of the patch can be expected in the near future. Perhaps, along with it, they will solve some other issues so that you do not have to manually fix something.
In order not to paint the topic too much, let's start right away. And let's start with the most popular mistake of recent years, MSVCR100.dll / MSVCP100.dll when launching Alien: Isolation
The problem can be easily solved by installing this software - versions for 32 and 64 bit OS.
Out of Range Error Fix in Alien: Isolation
Change the display settings in the OS to default and then try to launch the game.
Next, consider the problem in which Alien: Isolation crashes after a few minutes of play
On foreign forms, to solve the error, it is advised to turn off vertical sync, restart the PC, and also check the integrity of the cache in Steam. Another reason for the error may be insufficient RAM. free up RAM to the maximum before starting the game.
Departure also appears for owners Nvidia graphics cards and drivers 344.11 - one solution, completely remove the drivers, restart the PC and install the latest video card drivers.
The next problem with the game reported by gamers is friezes in Alien: Isolation, or freezes... To solve this problem, some advise to turn off all usb devices connected to the PC during the game - flash drives, smartphones, printers, etc. well, of course, except for the mouse and keyboard. Also helps to lower the refresh rate of the screen in the game to 60 hertz.
Black of black screen in the Alien: Isolation
First of all, try to transfer the game to the window by pressing Alt + enter - the game interface should appear and you can lower the resolution settings to start the game in normal mode. In particular, the Steam forums advise the following:
In the game folder \ Data folder, find the Engine_settings.xml file in it, find and change name = "Windowed" int = "0" on the name = "Windowed" int = "1"... Save changes and launch the game, and then set the permissions to native in the game menu.
Alien: Isolation is not saved
The only solution to the problem is to change the name of the account from Cyrillic to Latin, as well as launch the game from the administrator.

Alien: Isolation can't start the game. The doors are closed at the very beginning. Can't talk to Taylor
To solve this problem, you must first talk to Taylor, and then go to Samuel. Get started new game and do so. Everything should work out.
Alien: Isolation error The Graphics card supporting DirectX11 was not detected
I think everything is clear from the name of the error. It is not enough to have Directx 11 installed, it is necessary that the video card also supports it. Buy new card with support for version 11 DX Api.
Alien Isolation will run on Windowx XP / 32 bit
Based on the system requirements of the game, it needs Directx 11 support and 4 GB of RAM, but XP does not, so the game will not start on Win XP or on 32-bit OS.
Alien Isolation won't launch or if all else fails
Since there is no other solution yet, let's go the standard way:
1.Reinstall the game with disabled internet and antivirus.
2. Start the game with disabled antivirus.
3.Check the game cache in Steam.
4. Make sure your system meets the minimum game requirements.
5.Run AI.exe as administrator or in compatibility mode and
6 change the crack or repack
7. Make sure there are no Russian symbols on the way to the game.

Alien: Isolation is a survival horror game developed by Creative Assembly. Its release took place on October 7th, and therefore we are in a hurry to help with problems. The game turned out to be really interesting, and everyone should try it. The coolest thing is that now there will be only one Alien, but because of this, invulnerable. We'll have to constantly hide and scare every rustle.
The game is not as demanding as it could be, but it is still worth more or less to start adjusting your computer, as entertainment is becoming more demanding, and the hardware will not update itself. I, recently, also updated everything, I'm happy as an elephant. Here minimum requirements that you need:
- OS: Windows XP (32-bit) or better
- CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16 GHz
- RAM: 4 GB
- Video card: 1GB VRAM, AMD Radeon HD 5550 or Nvidia GeForce GT 430
- DirectX version: 9
- HDD: 35 GB available space
- Sound card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible
- Broadband internet connection
Files, drivers and libraries
After that, you need to update the video card drivers Nvidia GeForce.
A prerequisite for the successful functioning of any game is the availability of the latest drivers for all devices in the system. Download the utility Driver Updater to quickly and easily download the latest drivers and install them with one click:
- upload Driver Updater and run the program;
- perform a system scan (it usually takes no more than five minutes);
- update outdated drivers with one click.
There is a lot of load due to the intro, due to which the game turns off / freezes
The intro can be removed so that it does not interfere free play... Go to the Alien Isolation DATAUIMOVIES path and delete the AMD_IDENT.USM, CA_IDENT.USM, FOX_IDENT.USM files.
"Error accessing the game buffer." Can't go further after this error.
All you need is to start the game from the Administrator. Then the problem will disappear.
After starting, a black screen is shown, the cursor changes and sometimes writes "Out of range". How to be?
It's all about incompatibility (most often unreasonable) with your monitor. Oddly enough, if you turn on the game and it is incompatible, then you will not be able to configure anything in the game, respectively. The solution may be to press the "Alt + Enter" combination, after which the game will appear in the window, and there you can change the settings. If, for some reason that I do not understand, it still does not work to cope with the problem in this way, then you should find a configuration file in the game folder, in which you manually write the required monitor size and register the number of kHz.
Errors with crashes, alas, cannot be corrected manually. Most likely, you will have to wait for a patch from the developers, but it seems that the game is not full large quantity mistakes. If the solutions to unique AI problems did not help, then re-read the upper part of the article and check everything again, do not be lazy.
First you need to check the system requirements. Although the game does not require too high a computer configuration, it is unlikely to work well on weak machines. Minimum:
Processor: Starting with Intel Core 2 Duo 3.16 GHz or AMD equivalent CPU.
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GT 430 or AMD Radeon HD 5550 with 1GB DDR3 RAM or better.
RAM: from 4 GB
Disk space: 32 GB.
System: Windows 7, 8, 8.1. For computers up to 4 GB and less RAM 32 bits, and if this parameter is higher, then you need 64 bits.
DirectX: 11 version.
Additional software and fresh drivers
If everything is in order with the system parameters and Alien: Isolation still does not start, then it is worth updating all drivers and the corresponding software:
- The video card is AMD and for Nvidia. We go to the desired site and select the required video card, and if we don’t know the exact name, then download the utility that automatically detects and installs the required driver.
- Downloading free DirectX libraries.
- We update the programs required to run - NET Framework 4 and Microsoft Visual C ++ 2013 libraries.
Black of black screen in the Alien: Isolation
Basically, this problem happens with poorly cracked versions. First, we try to download the latest version of the tablet. Then we download a small patch, which is equally suitable for a license or not - download. It is also worth checking that the game is launched as an administrator, if not, then click on the exe shortcut with the right mouse button and select "Run as administrator".
No picture, only sound
This solution to the problem lies in the video card itself. If you have not updated the driver and installed the latest version, then we recommend that you go to the point above and download the appropriate software.
"There was an error interacting with the game clipboard, you will be returned to the main menu."
This misfortune appears when Axel was murdered. In this case, you need to download a fix or patch from this link. Installation must be done on behalf of the administrator and the game itself must be launched.
No sound in Alien: Isolation
The solution to this problem is not yet 100% working, since the error mostly manifests itself on pirated versions. There are two solutions here. The first one is to update the sound drivers. Second: download the latest version of the crack (there is a link above) or a repack, or just wait for a 100% working game.
Msvcp120.dll error
Indicates that a specific library is missing from the system. And in general, if at startup any error occurs, where the file ends ..dll, then the problem lies either in DirectX or in Microsoft Visual C ++ software. In our case, you need to update C ++, you can do this by downloading the libraries from the official site using the link above.
On the this moment these are all solutions for launch problems, freezes, errors, crashes, black screens and other problems in Alien: Isolation so far.

Alien: Isolation crashes or black screen
Pretty frequent problem when the game crashes or freezes with a black screen. Make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date. We also recommend turning off V-sync and lowering the resolution.
