Black screen on startup

I get a black screen when I try to start Sam & Max 201: Ice Station Santa. Any ideas?

You need to change the resolution down to 800x600. It still fits the screen you're using. I'm having trouble also with Chariots of the Dogs even with the resolution down to 800x600.

I found the solution - file "prefs.prop" in game directory must be deleted.
