I just downloaded DAYZ to my new notebook and tried to start it via Steam or the .exe, but it is always the same problem:
I see the Bohemia Interactive logo and then the white DAYZ logo. Some seconds later I can hear the normal background sounds (birds, rain, etc) but I always have a black screen. So I can not change any settings or go to the menu.
Very annoying.
My system is more than powerfull enough, so that should not be the problem. Drivers etc, everything is up to date.
