Issues fixed

Steam achievements not unlocking

Steam achievements will fail to unlock if the game has already been launched on the current instance of Steam.
Instructions

Cutscenes do not play

Instructions

Game doesn't reach menu

Instructions

Game freezes at initial black screen

Instructions

Cutscenes are only visible on half of the screen

This can be caused by the MS13-057/KB2803821 update; reinstall the update to resolve the issue.[3]
Instructions

Game causes system reboot when it crashes

Instructions

Black screen on multi-monitor systems

When playing on a system with multiple monitors, the game will default to fullscreen on the primary monitor. When the game is alt-tabbed out of and reopened, the screen will go black. Once there simply wiggle the mouse. Sometimes the game will go back to normal, and sometimes the game will crash instead.

Can't Alt+Tab with the GOG.com version

The game becomes very prone to crashing after Alt-Tabbing on some machines.
