Slowdown and crashes

[PonyFlare]

Searching, I can't seem to find my problem listed anywhere.
I am completely unable to launch the game in Full Screen (including zoomed) mode without completely locking up my computer: Screen goes black and all input is locked out. The only solution is to do a hard reset.

Running Steam version on Windows 7-64, Core i7, GeForce 425M, 16

Has there been any progress made on this? I just picked this up and it's rather annoying not being able to play.

At this point, I'm pretty sure that Lizsoft has completly forsaken this game and has no intention to fix any bugs related to it.

Which is a major shame especially since it asks some heavy money for this game.

Yeah, thankfully disabling my other monitor and re-enabling it after the game starts resolves the issue. Still annoying.

Yuck. It takes a bit of time to set up 4 displays. I'm getting this as well, and the menu just feels so slow after a while. The CPU usage gets to 100% on a single core.

System:

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3.2 GHz
AMD Radeon 7870
ASUS Xonar
4 displays (3 usually active / 1 usually shut off)
Using Xbox 360 controller
8 gigs of RAM
Windows 7 x64

Running via the Steam version

And okay, here's it happening in action (spoiler alerts): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GDxPHm7-aw  and http://youtu.be/4RYpAyBL2ME

It progressively gets worse. The footage jumps around because I had to change video capture locations. Also, the gameplay's frame rate drop is only due to Fraps capping to a hard drive later instead of the SSD

Also, thanks for the response to the issue. I especially hate it when people say something like "You must have modified the registry", and then fun ensues because I have a very good idea how the registry works. Regardless, glad to get that response

Edit: the game actually slows down over time without Fraps running.
