    Black screen at start. What have I not tried yet?

    I am having the black screen issue on the start up of the Far Cry 4 game.

    I have tried:
    Disabling HID drivers, USB drivers, Bluetooth adapter, webcam, game controller drivers
    I have unplugged my usb mouse and all other usb things from my computer
    I have never used a joystick
    I have an Intel Core i7 CPU Q740 @ 1.73GHz which I believe is quad core
    I have tried the trick to make the game run on two core just in case
    (shown here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT5hVb9MVv8#t=35)
    I tried reinstalling the game

    What other fixes can I try to get the game working?

    Thanks

    I have the same issue but I believe in my case it is the video card not supporting Direct X 11. I will be investing in a better video card today.
