Do you mean you start the game directly from the mech.exe file, already?
Cause this is the most common and effective workaround for cases like yours (skipping the intro movie, I mean).

Thanks for your kind consideration...

...my screen goes black when I hit the mech.exe..

..I've just reinstalled 7.1 with no luck as well as reinstalling my video drivers and directx (same versions as before....the game worked with these before, I just thought I'd try...)

...the only thing new I've installed prior to my problems was Microsoft .net framework which leaves no option to uninstall that I can see, but to be honest I can't recall whether or not I had the game successfully started since installing .net or not.....

?
