Thanks NSWL,

If the game works with a Nvidia card, I would try with my ATI card.

It started once. I tried to change the keyboard setting and it froze while trying to save it. I tried running on default settings but the difficulty options won't show up after selecting "new game". Did a Windows reboot the game won't even start.

Please select the game and press run (or enter key) more than once and see if it helps. I think POL isn't always responsive to user actions.
