Just got it, and had the black screen with flicker on my other screen.
Did the KillingFloor.ini repair, so now I see the Tripwire splash screen when you first load the game.
But it doesn't fade in, and Task Manager shows that KF isn't working.

So I ask you, what must I do to get past this one screen, and play for the first time?
No KillingFloor.log because it's blank.

*Edit*
I'm totally stuck on that screen, I even disabled my other screen, but it didn't help.

*New Edit*
Now that I got the game to run a little, we have a .log!

Come on guys, someone has got to have a way to bypass the intro, or to make it so it doesn't crash on the first screen.

Don't make this a waste of $20.

Find your "Killingfloor.ini" file, in there are various settings.
Perhaps there is something in there that prevents the intro movie. I don't know, because I don't have it installed on my laptop.:IS2:

I've been looking, but so far nothing seems to look like it would help.

I just create a new map in the editor called NVidiaLogo.rom save it and then replace this line:
LocalMap=KFIntro.rom
NetBrowseMap=Entry.rom
With this line:
LocalMap=NVidiaLogo.rom
NetBrowseMap=Entry.rom

Since I'm a noob, and couldn't find the editor, I just grabbed the map from http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=39077
And renamed it as you said.

It didn't give me Tripwire inc frame, just a black screen.
But Windows did notice that the game failed, and tried to 'solve the issue.'
So I'm still S.O.L.

But thanks for assisting.

Alright, so I found a way to load straight to the games menu, so I can see the EULA and Menu, but I can't do anything, and it doesn't give me a cursor. It just crashes.

*Edit*
Progress is made.
I can play solo in window mode, but I have a wait a while till I can control the game. In the menus and in the game it will hang, for a minute or two.

I cannot play full-screen, or online because of the hang.

But it's still progress.

If you're getting hang, have you tried lowering the settings?

If your game freezes make sure that no firewall or whatever is blocking it.

Try starting the game directly from the exe as well in the KF system folder.

Could you say how you actually did this to help others?
Because a friend of mine crashes on startup of the game and this might help too.

You say you have two screens. Try disconnecting one entirely while you play. I've had to do that to get KF to run ever since I upgraded one of my 22" monitors to a 24".
