We like to welcome everyone around here, Scipion... it's part of what makes this forum so enjoyable. "Flame-the-newbie" isn't acceptible in these parts. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Okay, lessee...

1. Virtual memory is best when it's fixed -- min and max at the same level. I'd set them both to 1536MB.

2. Willow, where are you....? Do a search on the forum for "driver" and you should find a number of posts on the topic. Sometimes the most current set of drivers is not the best, and Willow has posted compatible options on a number of occasions. You might consider switching to an older version to see if it works better.

3. I recently came across an old suggestion that dropping down your video acceleration -- on my system, Display Properties/Troubleshooting -- may resolve video problems. Too much acceleration may be bad for an old game like W&W...

4. Try disabling everything except needed programs before running W&W. There have been cases where another program (a filesharing program, IIRC) caused W&W to fail.

5. Have you tried applying the patch? That may or may not help, but it can make a difference.

Let's try that to continue.
