# The game has an error where no videos or gameplay will begin if the resolution is incorrect (leaving you either with a black screen, or your desktop view).  This also crashes dwm.exe and will not allow you to shut off walkingdead101.exe.  To get the game working, button mash Alt+Enter to force the game to change into windowed mode as soon as it loads up.  This should load the game and allow you to reset the resolutions in the game settings.
