Have you tried re-starting the PC?

If you have the Steam version of the game try verifying the files.

I have tried restarting the pc. I do not have steam version.

I also have a kind of similar bug since the last update and its very weird.

 

Its when I start a career mission. If I stay for too long in the last tactical screen, when I start the mission, the display remains black, I can hear background sounds, and I can open the menu but none of the option will work so I cannot finish the mission or restart it.

 

That only happens if I waste too much time in the LAST tactical screen (the one after the loading screen). If I dont waste time the mission starts without any issue.

I have now found this occurs in the single mission game only. All others work. IE scripted campaign, missions  etc etc,

I experienced this problem some two years ago, in some patch it was sorted out, but after the last one it has returned to me. In career after selecting start mission I get only black screen, I hear the background sounds I can press escape and select return to main menu or anything but after that the simulator will freeze. I wasn't able to find any solution for that

This is exactly what I experience since the last patch. As I said, it only happens if I waste time looking at the map before starting the mission. Its annoying but at least there's a way to go around it without problem.

 

It will probably fix itself with the next update I'd assume.

Just downloaded the game from steam, I get to the home page but whenever i try and play multiplayer it simply shows a pop up icon and then crashes. The quick missions map does not load and I cannot access anything

Most likely a graphics driver issue. See this thread: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/76447-d3d-error-dxgi_error_device_removed-redux/
