So I have uninstalled and reinstalled all drivers, updated everything and black plague crashes whenever it wants. sometimes if i try to back track sometimes when i am just trying to load the game

I bought the game off GOG and they have been no help in fixing my problem I really want to beat the game but its so annoying

Right now I am mixing the chemicals for a cure just for where i am at in the game as a point of reference.

And I have this I don't know if its helpful or not.

Have you tried reinstalling the game as there seem to be corrupted files?

Yeah about three times.
Have you tried replaying from an earlier save from before you first entered the level?
Re-download the game from GOG and install again.
