Ok .So, this is really weird.

I installed Metal Gear Solid V : The Phantom Pain in my Desktop having Windows 7 64 bit.It worked perfectly without any hick-ups.

However,i tried installing it in my younger brother laptop (Which has Windows 10 in it).The Game works fine till the end of the prologue but then keeps loading and then stays on a black screen...

And my Brother's Laptop is Lenovo Y 50 with all the latest Specs & 16 GB RAM.And an Nvidia GTX Card.So,it is not the graphics that is the problem,but something else...

Is their any fix :(

Have you tried verifying game files? You know some steam games doesn't support copy paste and run.

I do not think so...

old drivers?

No.It has everything LATEST.It's specs are almost similar to that of my Desktop.It has 16 GB ram,it is i7 and it is running NVIDIA Gforce Latest Video Drivers as well..

I have installed , Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes on it ..And it runs flawless.I have even installed Tomb Raider on it which also runs PERFECT...

Besides the game runs smooth till the Prologue ENDS and but won't run after that..

And the same game runs FINE on my desktop....Which as Windows 7 64 BIT ....

I'm just gonna assume the game was bought off from steam.

To verify game cache files:

Point to that game > Right Click > Properties > Local Files Tab > Verify Integrity of Game Cache

Perhaps a bad console port like many shooters now a day and needs a patch?

I usually like to go to the game's forum to check what other people are saying about it

I do not think , this is a case of a bad console port.As this game is running fine on my Windows 7 64 Bit Edition.The problem is occurring while playing it on Windows 10.

I will go to the games forum and see what i can get .

Thank You ...

Yes it does....

Did you check if the game supports Win 10?

Yes.It absolutely supports Windows 10 , as it plays fine till the end of the Prologue and from the start of the "Phantom Limbs" Level ...

In between the Prologue Ending and the start of the "Phantom Limbs" level , there is a small portion which is missing though.

So during that portion a BLACK SCREEN appears,where we can either quit the game or just stay on it.

So if someone plays from the start of the game , they are stuck at black screen.But the Game Version that i have , it automatically starts after the PROLOGUE...

So now since my brother started playing the game yesterday.When the game will reach the black screen , i will uninstall the game.And thus after installing again , it will start after the Prologue mission.

This obviously is FRUSTRATING.Only becasue it is Windows 10.Whereas i play the same game on my Windows 7 64 bit Edition & i have no issues like those...

What the hell is wrong with Windows 10 or even Windows 8.I have seen so many compatibility issues with gaming on Windows 8 & 10.And NONE , perhaps not even 1 issue on Windows 7...

There is no "Local Files Tab" to be seen in the "Properties" section of the .exe Game File...There are the regular tabs i.e GENERAL , COMPATIBILITY , SECURITY DETAILS , PREVIOUS VERSIONS ...
