Dark Mod Restart After Mission Install Hangs

When I select a new mission to play, the launcher restarts DM. After that restart is complete, my mouse pointer is frozen and the splash screen will stare at me endlessly. I have to ctrl-alt-delete to get Task Manager to kill Doom. After restarting again from tdmlauncher it is fine. It's fairly minor, but thought I'd point it out.

 

What does the launcher do before restarting? Is there a way I can do the task(s) manually to avoid this for now?

I'm running on XP service pack 3 with nvidea GeForce 6800. All else is well, just that oddity.

 

The Mod is looking mighty fine!

Could just be a focus problem. Have you tried clicking and pressing Alt-Tab to cycle the focus back to the TDM window?

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
