Black Screen Every New Game


Toma

Recommended Posts

Returning player from 12 years ago and basically brand new to PC gaming so forgive my sins 🙏 

 

At the start of every game (right about the end of the warm-up timer) my screen goes black.

I can still hear as tho I'm in game but I can't see or get ET to leave my screen (fullscreen) via esc button or f1. 

I have to alt+cntrl+del and use the task manager to close et before I can use my computer again.

I reconnect and all plays normal till start of next match/map

 

I can easily avoid all this just by leaving the server before I get black screen, waiting about 15ish seconds and then reconnecting... I didn't think it before, but as I type this I wonder if it correlates to the warm-up timer; I had previously just assumed it was all on me and my lack of knowledge (probably still is)

 

Anyway I was just curious if this was familiar to anyone, maybe I just need to flip a switch or change a value because of my particular PC 🤷🙏
