I recently had to do a reinstall windows 10 and had to reinstall a lot of games etc. My hardware hasn't changed, but the OS version I think is slightly different (windows updates installed right after the reinstall).
When I try to start thief2 via steam, with no T2fix, I just see a black screen and the loading icon (the blue circle that spins). The resolution seems low - like its trying to start up in much lower than native resolution.
I copied the directory and installed T2Fix, now I get the same thing but the resolution of the window it opens seems more normal (windows processing/loading icon isn't huge) but in the task manager it still says not responding.
I've let it sit for a minute or so, but I don't ever get any sound or video. No errors show up and I didn't see anything in the event viewer (longshot). Any ideas?
