Might happen if you're using too many resources? Try restarting it after closing some things? Or just a computer restart should probably fix it.
Hmmm, I've seen people who have had the BG's load inproperly before, but usually they atleast load something. Either way, background issues like that are most often caused by a lack of resources on your computer. Most commonly a lack of available video memory on your graphics card (only usually applies to extremely old graphics cards with 32MB of video memory or less). But the first thing i'd try would just be to restart your computer and try again.
Problem solved. I had to change the graphics settings to 800x600 in order to run the game, then hit "yes" when asked to change it.
Ah, I wasn't sure if you were playing on a different computer. I thought you were playing on the same computer (Unchanged), and it just randomly stopped working.

Yeah, sounds like a video card related issue. Using a rather old computer i assume? Typicaly you'd want to try and run it at a higher resolution than 800x600 if you could, or else it will crop a little off the sides of the screen. But if that is all that works then go for it. Either way, you likely shouldn't have as much problems with stuff like this in the new Stick.
Odd thing, sly. This is the same computer I've been using SO with since I got it about 2 years ago.

Hrmph, strange then.
Windows update might have changed your settings or something along the lines of that...you just never know with technology...

Many things can change your resolution. Full-Screen games, for example.
