Hi,
I recently bought this game on steam, and when i loaded it up for the first time, it worked fine, but I changed the resolution to a lower one and then i got a black screen and had to Ctrl +alt+del my way out of the game. Ever since then, I can load the game up, I see all the Logos at the start, but as soon as it gets to what i assume is the Main menu (Because the music starts playing) all i can see is the little Dwarf hand cursor, and nothing but a black screen behind it, and i have to Ctrl +alt+del again to end the game.
Basically I think what i need to do, is to get the game back to it's fresh install default settings, so that it starts up in the original resolution it was in when i first loaded it, but I am having trouble doing this.
What I have tried:
Un-installing the game and reinstalling it.
Un-installing steam completely including the registry entry and reinstalling it.
I even tried a system restore to several hours before i even installed the game and tried installing everything fresh.
Verifying the cache etc. and installing net framework and the other XM thing.
Any suggestions?
My specs are:-
Windows XP
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz (2CPUs)
1014MB RAM
Direct X 9.0c
Intel 82915G/GV/910GL 128.0 MB
SigmaTel Audio
If I can supply any more info please don't hesitate to ask, in the meantime I'll keep trying other routes,
Thanks.
