I'm confused.  Banished was released in 2014, it's only been 9 years since it's been out.

As for the black screen, are you in full screen or window mode?  Try whichever is the other mode.

hmm. new comp you say? did you load the DXdiag fix?  DXSETUP, that is needed. next would b to make sure the version is correct and somehow didn't glitch when transfering to the new comp.

maybe rightclick the executable (Application-steam-x64.exe) and choose to load in compatible mode for windows 7 ?

maybe uninstall directX 11-12 and install directX 9 and once installed, reinstall dirextX11-12 ?


have you tried to load the game while holding CNTRL ? that way you'll get a menu options and play with graphic options.
