Try changing your graphic settings to low within the game and switch to windowed mode. Initiate the cut scene again and report back whether you are now able to proceed.

Thank you! @proxos666
I was unable to revert back to Windows 8 (another issue) My next step/purchase will be a desktop.
For those of you who still want to play a semi-decent looking version of the game and get by the cutscenes, here is what works for me. I adjusted my Graphics Quality Preset to very low and then activated Bloom, which automatically adjusts Shader Complexity to high. Next I adjusted Character Texture Atlasing to high. (Refer to Image D) This is what allows my laptop to play through cutscenes, so try this or play around and see what works for you. I know for myself, I need my character to look semi-decent in order for me to enjoy gameplay, at least until I solve my issue permanently. Included are some images so you can see what this looks like. I've also included an image (Refer to image F) with the game set on Ultra Graphics setting. This image can be compared to Image E so you can see the difference between these customized settings versus Ultra.
