Hi U all

I got the game on friday 13.th, and that's what's causes a lot of trouble I
guess :-))

The game keeps on freezing. That is, the picture is freezing, but the sound
keeps going.
The only solution is to turn the computer off by holding down the OFF-button
in at least five seconds or so.

It freezes during those movieclips.
I have gotten to sergant Kelly, and when he asks me to check out his screen,
my screen freezes.
The only way to get there is to press ESC every time those "out of body"
experiences starts, and the continue walking.
It's ok because my PDA tells me what to do.

But why the freeze?

I have upgraded DirectX to the 9c version.
I have chosen lowest screen resolution choice in the system settings i.e.
480*640 and the lowest possible setting on details.
I have disabled the upper most choice in the advanced window.
I have not reinstalled after upgrading DirectX. Should I?
