You are awesome. I gotta tell ya. I was singing it at some point. Hahahhaha
I hope that this helps someone... It was the only thing that worked for me so far.
I had the same problem (Direct X message error, unable to play on fullscreen because of flickering or crashing), that also happened to me with The Night of the Rabbit, so I tried the same solution and so far it worked (at least I can open the game on fullscreen without flickering or crashing).
What I have done it is very simple: on the desktop just right-click, select "screen resolution", then on the new window click on the text "change size of the text and other elements" (or similar, I have Windows in Spanish), and set them to 100% (small).
I have a Macbook Pro Retina (early 2013) with Windows 7 and the GPU is a NVidia GT 650.
Good luck!
