2. If you have the latest nVidia card (8800 family), then you need to run Grim Fandango in software rendering mode, or the characters appear all striated.

Either one or both of those should get you up and running.

Cool, thanks for the help, metzomagic. I've actually already created a separate partition on my harddrive without multi-core support (I have a quad-core) specifically for adventure games, because of Broken Sword 4 -- so I'll try Grim Fandango on that
