I can start the game and play it just fine- up until a point. In the beginning-ish of the game, you can pick up a note that initiates the little cut-scene where you move over to the blue light that is the orb.

My problem is that once this cut-scene starts, I can't move, and I don't get a blue light at all; the screen just stays black. The game has not frozen; I can press ESC and bring up the menu, and I can hear the audio from the room with the note.

If I can just skip the note without that having any signifcance for my gameplay experience, I guess that's good. I'm just one of those 100% completion people.

* I've updated all my drivers and tried running the game on low graphic settings, I've also tried reinstalling it.

How long do you wait after the cut scene starts before exiting the game? The screen does stay black while Daniel talks for quite a while before the orb appears (21 seconds to be exact). Do the subtitles appear on your screen (assuming you have them turned on in the options menu)?

I waited a good 5 minutes or so. Certainly longer than 21 seconds. The screen does stay black while Daniel talks, but the subtitles are there.
