Syberia 1 help?

[Guest]

When Syberia first came out, I played it to half-way and the second CD
wouldn't work. Since then I've played Syberia 2 and really enjoyed every
aspect of the game. I came across '1' again today, and did a 'full' install
this time, and my PC accepted both CDs.........BUT! looking forward to
seeing how it all began, the graphics run so slow, it's like watching the
million dollar man. I assume my 'new-ish' PC needs a tweak, but, please,
where, how,what?

PC specs:

Pentium 4 2,800
1GB ram
Radeon 9600
Onboard Soundmax
200GB HD

All drivers up to date.

My specs

Small brain in a large body.

Hope someone can help, it's a good game, thank you.

Before I switched it off I thought, of course, why didn't I think of that!
Unfortunately, it made no difference, so it's back to the drawingboard; so,
any more suggestions please. NO! not that!

The patch claims to fix problems with the game running slowly on Pentium
4 processors with hyperthreading. You can get it from either the
Microids site, or from The Adventure Company's. Perhaps you ought to try
that?

HTH.
