| Summary | 0000537: Will not display in Windowed Mode | ||||
| Description | Instead of the normal graphics windowed mode only displays a solid black box. When I then hit F11 to switch to full screen it does so easily and I can play. However if I switch back to windowed mode it is just a black box again. I can still access the menus and "play" blindly; but it does not display anything other than solid black. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Launch in windowed mode, either via init options or the prompt. Switch to windowed mode after it launches full screen. Either case the result is the same, a black box with apparently nothing in it. | ||||
| Additional Information | When I was using Windows 7 RC (I upgraded so I could play this without it blue screening on my every two hours) I did not have this problem. It ran in Windowed mode just fine. I attempted to use some alternate tile sets; and the result was the same. I adjusted the refresh options; but nothing changed. | ||||

Make sure your graphics drivers are up-to-date. Win 7 drivers were often shaky at launch. |

Perhaps you are correct... as it is now spontaneously working right. I guess it lied to me when it said it was finished updating even though I spent two hours making sure before I started. Stupid 7. |
