Worked the other day, updated my video card drivers (ATI HD 5850 - 11.10)
And now I get a black screen on login.

I've not been able to change any graphical options, so still running at minimum resolution.

Thanks, Will-ko

Sadly AMD drivers are hit or miss for this game. 11.9 seems to work well. Before that it was 11.3 or 11.4. All other 11.x drivers between the two have problems. I haven't seen a 11.10 thread yet.

Yes it's unfortunate that if you play the most current games that your choice is to make that game run better or this game run at all.
