Have you tried removing all the game files and redownloading? Or validating the game files via the Steam client?

Another thing you could try is to rename the My Documents/My Games/BBCBA folder and run the game to see if something in your save data has become corrupted.

Cheers

To clarify, you should go to your Documents folder, then to My Games. You will see a folder called BBCBA. Rename this folder (e.g. to HOLD_BBCBA). Then run the game again. It will then act as if it is being run for the first time.
