I love this game but now cannot play it due to two major problems: When I get to main menu, if I click something, Like new game, nothing happens. Additionly, when it does work, I can't get from the loading screen to the game itself. Any button before the game doesn't work. When I'm in the game, it's fine, but NO menus work! Please help!!!!!!

Had it worked for you before now?  You say you can get into the game sometimes but not other times -- do the menus work in some sessions but not other sessions?  Do they work sometimes in one session, sometimes not in the same session?  I've never seen this reported before that I can recall.

It has worked for me until this last  month. Additionly, if I bring windows task manager up, sometimes I can get to it. It sometimes works in a session, but then it crashes.

Have you made any changes to your system that might have caused this (new hardware, programs running in the background, or similar)?  Have you tried shutting down all other applications before launching FOF?

Have you tried running it in low graphics mode?

I'm not the tech expert, but I can't help but think that since this is so strange a problem, and the game had been working perfectly well until know, it might be best just to reinstall. (It probably can't make matters worse, and might solve the mysterious problem.) If you do so, just back up all of your save files.
