screen goes black but doesn't crash game

[slavina]

I also have this problem. Other saves work fine, but as soon as I grabbed the key and passed out, it only loads a black screen. Exiting and re-entering the save does not fix anything, it isn't frozen as the oil tip shows up again and fades, and sounds can be heard. I have the 1.1 patch and my drivers are updated. I play with no other applications running. I don't want to have to replay the entire Archives, but it looks like I will have to at this point.
Other than this, the game has run smoothly and beautifully.
