Freezes on black screen with background music after death!
My PC version of the GoT game keeps crashing when I die. If I die during the game, the screen goes black and will not respond. The background music is still playing but nothing else will work. If i use the Esc button it brings up the settings menu and will let me exit back to the main menu but gives no option to continue from my last save point. After getting back to the Main Menu the only option I have it to start the game over from the very beginning. What could be causing the problem when I die and also is there option i'm not seeing to continue my previous game from the main menu without having to start back from the begining? I've already run the diagnostic tool here's what it found. https://www.sendspace.com/file/bmn06k

I apologize for the inconvenience. Can you please clarify if you have tried changing the graphics settings and game resolution to a lower setting, and see if you are then able to progress without seeing a black screen after death? If not, I recommend trying this, and try changing the game's resolution to match your current monitor's native resolution of 1600x900. If you are having to start over the game every time you die, you may not be reaching the first auto-save point in the game to allow the game to save properly. I recommend trying my above suggestion, and then play through the game until you reach an autosave sequence, and the game should save successfully.
I changed the game resolution to 1600x900 and played through the red wedding scene three times. I died in different areas each of the three times and after clicking like instructed on the Valor Morghulis screen I still had the same problem of the black screen popping up with the back ground noise that was playing in the first scene. I should note that the first time I ever played the game I did not have this problem. If I died it would start me back at the last auto saved area and let me try again. That first session I played pretty far through the game, getting past the Red Wedding scene, the scene on the road back to the Forrester castle, In the Forrester castle with an angry dude that was testing the young Lord of the castle, etc. The last scene I remember getting to was the scene where I was hiding in the woods while someone tortured a man and they almost found me. I assume this was far enough to have a save point. As I stopped playing that night and tried to come back to the game later the only option it seems to give me on the start screen is "begin episode one". I'm not sure why it didn't save my progress but after that I had to start over and every time I died after that it just gave me the black screen problem.
My apologies, unfortunately after looking over your Support Tool information again, I cannot seem to find the reason you are experiencing the issue. I recommend uninstalling the game, and deleting the Game of Thrones folder from your \Documents\Telltale Games\ file directory, then re-install the game in Steam, then start the game again, and you should be able to play the game successfully without this issue occurring.
