I'm sorry, Candace, I just noticed I never replied.. O-o
Did you get this resolved?
The software Marlon recommended would be a great try.
I just haven't had time to read up on the games actual mechanics. You
said it gets dodgy when looking for evidence; like a mouseover, old
school sierra kings-quest/leisure suit larry style?
I've had mouse problems solved by directX patch before. Or try a ps2
instead of use for your mouse and kb. CS used to lag me when I zoomed
the sniper scope; I thought that was just the way the game did it for
like 2 years till I got my new box. Same thing happened with bf1942
demo.
Course these are 3d engines, yours looks like a 2d hunt and click ala
myst, with fmv mixed in.. I s that correct or am I off still?
Thanks,
Matthew P. Smith

I tired moving it to the faster CD drive, but that didn't seem to help.
It's all cool and the gang until I am in one of those "move the cursor
to find something" scenes.
Which sux, since I could be missing a piece of evidence.

Ok, ill look online through a few articles tonight after class and check
it out. Basically, I just want to know if it is using a 3d engine or
just all fmv cut scenes or what. 3d = lower the resolution or get a
better video card, fmd, you might look at ghosting the cd to your drive,
removing the drive speed factor if your hd has enough space.
Was there an option to do a full install, or partial? Usually the full
install puts everything on the hd and you only need the disk in the
drive for copy protection.
Matthew.

So, to top off my addiction to Law and Order, I bought the game this
weekend. My computer is a 1.4 GHZ with around 400 MB of RAM (RDRAM..
damn you Dell).
Anyway, when I load up the game, the scenes look grainy and the mouse is
slow to respond. My Video card is an NVida.
Am I just ignorant of the whole process or is there something wrong or
is my computer incapable? Anything I can do to make the repsonse faster?
(Short of buying more RAM.... RDRAM is ridiculously expensive these
days.)
