I'm not sure whats wrong and can't seem to find anything relevant online.
Some games like Evil Guard give the same error but with more details.
any help?

Solved: It's a graphics processor problem. If you have more thean one graphics processor great just change which one you run the game on, if not you out of luck.

Bumping this, since I too am now getting this error at start up of every MX title.. F5 refreshing will boot the games back up generally and main menus will actually appear that time, but generally you'll come to a scene after leaving the room you are currently in, than the engine will stop rendering background imagaes , thus putting the Player Character and NPCS on a black background until you reset the game again..

Annoying issue, if anyone knows a sure fire way to make this bs stop, I implore you to share your insight.

I don't know if anyone is still having this issue, but I fixed it by updating my drivers and it fixed all the games that were having this issue.
