It is a pitty i get the black screen when it loads up :(

In the config utility turn everything down, see if it loads. Then turn everything on one at a time and load the game, see what's causing the black screen.

It's usually, HDR, Bloom, or Pixel Shader version not compatible with graphics card. HDR will cause a black screen for me in games like Oblivion.

I've just downloaded and tried this.....all i get when i open it is 2 windows, one of which is blank and the other has the splashscreen. But then they both close :confused:

Any ideas?
