Re: Back after a year away and cannot seem to get into Withywindle!
I had the exact problem about .... 6-7 months ago.
I had to completely remove the game from my computer and reinstall it.
Bugger of a problem because it wouldn't work reinstalling/downloading with the Pando Media Booster. Got 0.2% and crashed and repeated so I had to look for the .exe file download somewhere else on the site. That worked though it downloaded in my internet browser so couldn't close it until it finished.
I also noticed that it had changed my graphics to DX11 which some reason always gave me the black screen part of your problem, changing back to DX9 or 10 fixed it for me.
hope this helps!
