Is Gothic the only application/game where you run into trouble with??

I have a Geforce 2MX card under WinXP as well, but after installing the latest video drivers from http://www.nvidia.com I have no more problems. (See my last post for details).

This sounds like something running in the background using memory or CPU time. Have you tried shutting down all other applications (ICQ/MSN/Virusscanner?/Realplayer/Kazaa/etc) before running Gothic? If not, then you could try that. And maybe its a virus? (You DO have an up to date virusscanner on you PC don't you??)

Otherwise try upgrading your drivers for your soundcard, since that seems to be an issue for some players as well..

Good luck

aye i did have the new nvidia drivers for my vid card... but they caused more probs then they did good... and for some reason my vid card gets stuck in infinite loops... which also cause my computer to crash... never thought of getting updated drivers for my soundcard.. sb live value... i think the last time i checked they didnt have them out for xp yet... and yes i have mcafee up to date so there is no virus

i still cant get my mouse look to work.. and if i cant get it to work i most likely wont finish the game... the attack on the free mine just happened... and for some reason i lost half of my ore... 6064... it just said that when i was running back to the new camp after talkin to diego... said "give 6064 ore"
dont know whats up with that... but oh well.. so what i really need help with is my mouse look.. is there somewhere i can set it up in the settings of gothic??
