Laptop users, make sure you have the power supply plugged in, it's a common issue that many people seem to overlook, as most laptops come with an automatic power saving mode that reduces game playability when unplugged.Ģ. If you do manage to fix it on a desktop computer without having to downgrade the quality, please post what you did as a comment and I will add it to the main post in the 'Updates' section, so Desktop users, be sure to check there if none of the following applies to you!**ġ. I'm unsure what the issue with desktop computers is as of now, but a lot of people seem to fix it by changing the settings as mentioned above. ** It seems that most of the following applies to laptops.

If you would like to have the 60FPS experience, you may have to turn off HD textures and turn down the resolution. If this does fix the problem for you, skip to the 'Why does the game go in slow motion?' part of this post for a bit more of an understanding. This has fixed the issue for a lot of people. The first thing you should try is settings the frame rate to 30FPS. Update: A much neater, more official guide that you should look at first can be found here, unless you came here FROM that guide, in which case, scroll down to the 'Switchable Graphics' section to find the information you came for. The rest of this post is dedicated to slow motion issues.

If this does not solve your black screen/crashing issues, then I'm sorry to say, I'm afraid I cannot help you. In your library, right click Resident Evil 4, then click properties, then go to the 'Local Files' tab and click 'Verify integrity of game cache.'

Although, if your issue is something such as crashing on startup or a black screen, try verifying the game cache. Note: Those looking for a fix for anything other than slow motion gameplay should look elsewhere.
