It is most definately Deja Vu 2: Lost in Las Vegas (2nd in the Deja Vu 
series)

A whole group of similar games were put out my Mindscape in that time 
frame. Univited was the first, then Deja Vu, then ShadowGate,  then DV 
2. I own them all, and they actually still run (if i remember correctly.)

What great games! Not sure on where to get them, or how many of the 
titles are/where available for PC, as I had the Mac versions.

Hope that helps at least!
