Game freezes on conversations.

[DreamDevil]

The game runs just fine when exploring, fighting, switching areas, etc.
But whenever I talk to an NPC, enter a building or open the menu the game stops for several seconds before continuing.

Any suggestions?

I'm running the 1.7 Atari version. Retail.
Dual Core CPU with a Geforce 7950. Win XP.

Well, that's really strange, do you have any problems with framerate during other parts of the game? Do you use latest DirectX and video drivers?

Solved the problem.
I did have the latest DirectX and Video drivers.
But I have not done a clean sweep of my drivers for some time, so I uninstalled my current drivers, clean sweeped using Driver Sweeper then reinstalled latest drivers and now it works like a charm.


BTW, thanks for responding so quickly :D
