I've tried everything and after clicking to start game it goes to the loading screen and nothing ever happens, then i ctrl+alt+delete and task manager and see that dx2. not responding...

i have realtek hd audio and i have read on forums that; that is a culprit, but obviously i am not playing without sound.

however on my windows 10 PC the game works fine (although long loading times)

so does the GOG version fix this win7 issue at least?

:(

would rather play this on my win7 computer and i'm not keen to install windows xp 64-bit ever again.
I can't guarantee this will help you with things but try this mod to see if the game behaves a bit better.

It isn't anywhere close to being as comprehensive as some of the mods for the first game though so don't expect miracles from it, sadly.

Had the same thing, after googling for a bit I came across this that helped me:

When the game goes dark open up the Task Manager, go to details, find DeusEx2.exe which will be at "not-responding". Right click it, and select Analyze Wait Chain. This will show which process is hanging it up, for me it was logitech_discord.exe and one nvcontainer.exe by Nvidia. Killed both of those processes (was a bit worried about stopping the Nvdia process) and the game worked just fine after that.
