Ok so I haven't played 911:FR for awhile and when I went to play it recently I experienced the problem described in this thread (launch, black screen, crash to desktop). I updated my graphics driver and removed every codec i found except ffdshow (and i tried removing this as well, no change). Additionally, I uninstalled 911:FR and reinstalled it as well (multiple times with no change). Logfile DxDiag(x86) DxDiag(x64) If anyone could help I would appreciate it.
