Improper shutdown

[Frothymouth]

I recently downloaded fabel 3 through steam and when i try to play it before it loads a message pops up that says improper shutdown detected then the game starts up gets all the way to the main menu then when i thry to play it it trys to load but as it loads the screen goes black and it goes back to windows. I have treid reinstaling several times (fabel and steam) i have gone through every steam troubleshoot list, downloaded every driver and update they told me. i have posted on the steam forums and lionhead forums and nobody has been able to help. i tried to change the compatibility setings by folowing this forum but it hasent changed any thing. I am not great with things of this nature so if you could help it would be very apriciated.
