I bought the original Bioshock (not the remastered version because I heard its kinda buggy and messes up the lighting and I hate that) and tried to play it the last couple of days and have found it to be impossible to do. The game opens up in some kind of windowed state where you cant really see the bottom of it. If you change the resolution to anything wide screen the game just crashes and I have to restart my pc. Funnily enough if i change the resolution to 1920x1080 in windowed mode it still works somehow? But then as soon as I go into full screen it crashes again. Has anybody else had this problem and figured out how to solve this? I've waited years to finally play this game and it's a huge let down to have to deal with this right now

I am having this same issue! If I change the resolution at all, it crashes and I too have to restart my PC. Good to know it runs somewhat in a windowed mode. Were you ever able to figure this out?
