I tried booting up the dialogue maker and all I got was a black screen. No portrait, no dialogue box, no visible options, just the mouse cursor. I'm not sure if I need anything else that pertains to the dialogue creator to make the display show.
I got it to work. I had to read that user guide and make a shortcut with the additional command at the end (in section 5), but it works now. Drivers are fine though. Sorry for your trouble.
