Exiting POE causes black screen
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have regarding this issue.
I've played POE for a few weeks now and notice that on occasion, when I exit the game via the main menu the screen goes completely black and I am unable to access my Windows desktop or other software. Resetting my PC resolves this problem, but is there a better way to avoid this issue? It's a new PC build and I have no issues with other software or games, so perhaps there's something in my POE graphics settings I can troubleshoot? Last bumped on Dec 3, 2016, 11:37:05 PM

I to have had this issue. At first i thought it was another program i was running at the time. However, when i rebooted my PC and opened path of exile and closed it. The black screen occurred and I had to force shutdown my computer.
(sidenote)There was a patch prior to the one where this was occurring and that had issues with latency and stuttering. From memory I was running default settings and had not touched the other options menus. I was really excited to play the new league after hiatus. Hopefully people will respond and GGG will take notice. -Brae |

Check your DirectX options under Game Options. I was having the same problem until I changed the renderer from DirectX 9 EX to DirectX 11. Once I did that, the game was able to close normally and I was returned to my desktop.
