Hello,
I don't know what Steam is up to, but after installing KBAP and KBCR and validating multiple times the game finally worked the way I think it should.
However, I shut down steam and restarted it, and then it downloaded another 1GB update to AP.
Now when I start the game and choose one of the campaigns, the game no longer tells me that it needs to restart, but rather just starts at the opening movie (the one with what looks like digital number to a digital clock) and if I click on it to bypass the videos the game freezes up.
Update If I sit through the videos it doesn't freeze. Well that is to say that it's not really freezing, it's bypassing the videos like it should when I click on them, but the screen is freezing in KB. If I ctrl+alt+del and go to task manager and then click the KB icon on my start bar (task bar) then the game takes me to the main menu. So while it's not technically freezing or crashing, it is not behaving like it should behave when I click on the videos to bypass them.
AND... It only does this AFTER choosing another campaign. Once a campaign is chosen and restarting the game I can click through all the videos to get to the main menu. Something strange going on here.
