I usually play GC2 in windowed mode, the other day I had to reduce my desktop size for some testing, when I played GC2 it launched the game in full screen mode, but didn't crash. Desktop now back to normal, launched GC2 and I launches a window, I can click on 'Start Game' or 'Update' etc, but once I start the game I get a black window, non-responsive.
