Yay!!! I reinstalled and that fixed the area transition lock-ups, but I still get some random assertion failures here and there.
Umm scratch that. The dreaded area transition lock-ups have returned. The last time I let one sit still for too long it closed out the program and gave a runtime error. Interplay gave directions to fix it but only on windows 98/95
I have XP.

"This will happen most often when the area file has copied over incorrectly from the CD. You will want to do the following:
- Right click on "My Computer"
- Select "Properties"
- Click on the "Performance" tab
- Click on "File System"
- Clcik on the "CD-ROM" tab
- Under "Optimize access pattern for" select "No Read Ahead"
- Click on "OK"
- Click on "CLOSE"
- The system will want to restart for these changes to take effect. Click "YES" to restart.
- Delete all area files contained within the C:\Program Files\Black Isle\Torment\CACHE\ folder.
- Rerun the game

Can anyone tell me how to do that translated into XP directions?
