Windows 7, 2500K (stock speed) 8GB RAM, MSI P67A-GD65, Samsung 830 SSD for OS n' sum stuff, 500GB WD HD for games. I think that covers most of it. Oh. Radeon HD 7950 (<strong>14.12 AMD Catalyst Omega Software)</strong> and a Dell 2007wfp (1680x1050) 20.1" screen.
Launch the game after the patch has been applied, works just as expected. Setting the resolution to anything above 1024x... 800 is it? causes it to flash to black, and drops me at the desktop. The game is still running. (I can hear it.) No icon in the task bar. ALT-TAB shows the icon as the game is running, switching to it flashes the menu, then black, and back to the desktop.
Workaround. Click mouse button. This seams to "lock" focus regardless of what you click on ingame, and the game remains on top. No gameplay issues (well, so far.)
Misc info. Reinstalled 3 times. From freshly downloaded GoG files, (Thank you GoG for giving away those back when.) from GoG files i had on my drive, (older version, not sure what the difference is really) and then again with the fresh downloaded stuff. I have the FOT-Redux installed this time around, but it was acting up before that. I of course have the ALT stuck after ALT+TAB "issue" not sure if that is universal or not.
Pretty much just posted this here since the workaround is so simple, if there is a known fix, great. If not, perhaps someone who ends up having the same issue can be helped by my record here.
Good luck / have fun.
