Windows 10 ideas?
The game play the menu song but only shows a white screen on window mode or nothing at all on full screen.

I tried everything in this forum. Anyone can run this game on Windows 10?

I'm using Windows 10. I just get a white screen for full screen, but everything seems to work fine in windowed mode. Sorry, I don't know how to fix your problem.

I have the same problem here. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. In windowed mode it works but in full screen I get a white screen too. I hope there will be a fix in the near future, because the game is very good.

I am able to play fullscreen on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. But I need to change the desktop resolution to 800x600 first.

If I play in full screen mode at my default of 1920x1080, I get the white screen problem. If I alt-tab out of the game and after a while alt tab back in, I can see the game but the mouse isn't usable.

Note depending on your GPU, drivers, monitor and settings, switching you desktop to 800x600 may or may not result in the desktop and game actually using the whole display with black bars for the correct aspect ratio. Or may be you can't even select 800x600. If you can't get 800x600 desktop, you can probably find some general help in various places.

Edit: Just noticed changing the desktop resolution to 800x600 first was already suggested in the Java thread back in August, so if you tried everything in the forum you probably already tried this. Sorry about that. Still it may be helpful to others who read this thread.

Thank you Nil Einne. Running windowed or setting the desktop to 800x600 before running full screen seem to be the only options that work.

Try to enabled the option "Disable display scaling on high DPi settings" (Edna.exe-->compatibility properties) and if doesnt work, try to change compatibility to SO w7 or to SO w8, (the game is from 2008)

i get black screen, and it won't respond to keybard short cuts, i've had to either make my laptop hibernate or force restart to exit it. really disapointed. not sure which version of the game i've gotten, was brought on humble bundle late dec 2015.

"Disable display scaling on high DPi settings" fixed the issue for me.
