My Wizardry 8 used to work perfectly fine on my system.. no problems whatsoever. When I upgraded to Windows XP, however, (from Windows 98) at first it would not work at all (gave me an error message that I can't remember now), so I reinstalled the game.. and it now only runs in extreme slow motion.. mouse cursor and keyboard take forever, and the game itself won't even load. I didn't change anything on my computer other than installing XP and Norton Systemworks 2002. I have tried re-installing, updating drivers, fiddling with resolutions.. nothing works. I have a Pentium III 450 mHZ, 40 gigs of HD, 256 megs RAM. Could my graphics card be too old? (Intel 740) But in that case, why did it work fine with Windows 98?
I hope somebody can help me get my game back!
