Black Screen on all programs after reinstall

Post by GrassWhooper »

hey everyone, so a while ago i switched from windows to linux mint 19.1-64 bit , then i installed wine staging build, and it ran flawlessly, it ran most programs, that i came across.
then, somehow, my harddrive, got corrupted, and had to get a new harddrive, and then, reinstalled linux mint 19.1-64 bit, then i downloaded all updates in the update manager, then i installed wine.

i went through the download page commands everything went fine, and wine installed and it runs, i can run winecfg, and wine --version, and it just works.

then the problems happened.....whatever it is that i run, be it, battle.net, origin, or even my own game, that i built using the unity game engine, they all just, give the same problem, they install in an alright fashion, and i installed them, in the c drive that gets made in the .wine directory, but whenever i run them, i just get a black screen.
i honestly, have no idea, can anyone help me with that?
