Lost Crown problems, help!

[Owskie]

So i installed this game the other day, and got to play it for just a little bit before It froze in the first conversation I was having. Restarted and it did this time after time.

However on one restart I noticed the intro had voice to it, which was not playing before. This time it didnt freeze. However trying to play the game again is proving to be tricky, the intro video will not play the voice nor will one of my saved games offer the sound clip of a dog barking. All of the freezes I encounter are conversational.

Any idea how to fix this?

Any other programs open? It may help to disable your firewalls temporarily while you play.
I can get similar problems with firewall-pop-up-reminder-windows showed "behind" the game.

It is actually recommended to disable firewalls, if you read the booklet closely.

seems its not just this game, the same problem happens with paradise, guess its my computer. Just updated all my drivers and im still having the problem. I think my firewall is disabled though, I dont ever get any popups about it.

Windows automatic updates? That can be a problem also.
Check to see that your firewall really is disabled.

I've heard horror stories about that Windows Automatic Update, so it probably would do you good to disable it.

fixed with a reformat, thanks though!
