Trouble with Windows 8.1
Hi.
I'v been running this game with no issue (Via Steam) for ages now on an old Laptop using Window's 7.
I'v Just updated to a new desktop running Window's 8.1. It's an alienware and came with Steam installed.
I'v downloaded and checked the cache several times but I just cant get it to run.
Every time I try to run the game, it crashes on loading.
Firstly, it doesn't come up with the loading symbol in the bottom corner, just a black screen.
Then, I hear a few second's audio and then my display turns off. (I'm using it with a TV with HDMI rather than a monitor). I can get back with Alt Tab though?
For the record, My display and audio drivers are fully upto date, as is Steam.
Any Idea's please?

Poker night 2, not inventory!
I apologize for the inconvenience. Please try starting the game again, and when you see the blank/black screen, please try switching the game to Windowed Mode using the shortcut (Alt+Enter for PC) and see if you are then able to see the game correctly. If so, please then try changing the game's resolution and/or graphics settings to a lower setting, and click Apply. Then try switching back to Full Screen Mode by using the same shortcut, and your issue should then be resolved.
Many, many thanks!
This worked. I'v upped the resolution to 1920 x 1080 and then full screen.
Now runs all the time and with great graphics.
Mike, you are a star!
Just need to get the rest of my blasted games working!
You're welcome, enjoy the game!
