I'm installing PA for the first time, trying to get it to work at last on a new and up to date system, and it is a challenge. (I thought it was my old computer last year, but maybe not.)
Following the many installation instructions carefully didn't seem to do the trick.
When starting, I can't see the game at all, just a Janus error, black screen blanker.
Does this error text help to reveal the trouble?

Thanks.
