    Hey guys! First time poster here. I have a strange issue. If I launch the game, either from steam or from the desktop, it shows up minimized in the activity bar, but when I click it, nothing happens. If I hover my cursor over the icon, it simply shows my desktop. As if the game was transparent. This issue occurs every time I launch the game since I tried to change the graphics driver. I tired reinstalling the game and running both as admin and in Win7 compatibility mode. Nothing helped.

    I'm running the game on an 64-bit Asus laptop with an Intel Core i5-4200U CPU and a Geforce 740M graphics card. I have 8GB RAM available.

    Try to delete the BeamNG.Drive folder in Documents, it should reset the graphical settings to stock. Also, you could try, when the BeamNG window is active, to press WINDOWSKEY + UP ARROW to maximize the window or ALT+ENTER to enter in FullScreen and then Alt+Enter again to go back to windowed mode.

    I deleted the file in C:/ Documents, like you said, but now it doesn't seem to launch at all. Though when I try it again it says an instance of the game is already running. :confused:

    Scratch that, it just took a while, but now I'm happily smashing up a Gavril Grand Marshal beyond recognition. Thanks for the help, and thanks for some entertaining videos! :)
