Hi sferle, and welcome to The Blue Parrot Inn. Smiley
Your problem sounds exactly like the one I had with the demo. I was told it was not enough RAM. You'll probably need at least 128MB. If that works let me know. I never upgraded mine yet and so still haven't bought the game. Embarrassed

Are there any resolution settings you can try ?  Different screen resolution perhaps?
