BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH

Posted by anthonyloprimo on April 29, 2011, 1 a.m.

..On Minecraft.

I'm on a few different random servers, messing around (by messing around, I mean walking around, petrified to do anything since I somehow end up causing trouble unintentionally LOL) and my screen keeps going fully black at random intervals, freezing and then resulting in me having to force quit the game.

I looked on youtube for a few different remedies and they all pretty much resulted in me doing the same thing.

…Which pretty much resulted in the same outcome as well - still dealing with an all black screen.

And that's pretty annoying when I got it to not only make things, but also try to actually do things with others XD

Any ideas that doesn't involve deleting the .minecraft folder, or the "version" file or anything like that?

Yeah its just a problem with the game. If you dont want it to crash, then the next highest will be more stable.

But I like max view distance, so I deal with the crashes.
