On the UK version of WWTBAM, the intro sequence video is all over the place on Windows 2000? Is there any way this can be solved, as it really annoys me!! Bob The Builder

OP
The Drive is a Creative Labs 5x DVD Blaster.
 
The rest of the system is as follows:
Celeron 500
196MB RAM
10GB Hard drive
Geforce 2 GTS Card
Phillips CD Writer(8x4x32x)
 
I have tried it in Both drives and it is the same thibng happening. I have uninstalled, and then reinstalled the game and still it does the same thing!!

Have you got SP1 and the various other updates for Windows 2000 installed?
 
If not, grab everything and try again. Also update to DirectX 8 if you haven't already as that may well help.
 
Otherwise, it might just be a case of your CPU not able to play video smoothly enough.

There is a patch on the WWTBAM site which I think fixes it. I installed it before trying the game, so I can't say for sure. My DVD is similar to yours though, and it runs pefect (Mine's a 6X).
 
Hope it works out,
