Issues fixed

Game launches into a white screen and then crashes

Fix in registry[3]
  1. Open the configuration file(s) location with the Registry Editor.
  2. Set ScreenWindowed from 01 00 00 00 to 00 00 00 00.
  3. When the game launches, it will go immediately into fullscreen. If the screen resolution is labelled as undefined, do not switch back to windowed mode, as the game window shrinks and can no longer be interacted with, making the process needed to be redone.

Windowed mode doesn't persist

Use Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse FOV Fix
The normal FGUY.exe is bugged and resets back to fullscreen each time you boot up the game, despite the settings being set to windowed.
If the screen resolution is labelled as undefined, follow the steps to set up Widescreen resolution to get the correct resolution.
