When on level 4 facing the ladder down to level 5 the dungeon view goes black and my computer freezes for about minute and then works for about a second.It keeps repeating this cycle until I turn away from the ladder. Celeron 333mhz, 96meg Ram, WinMe, OpenGL. I'm pretty much computer illiterate so I don't know what other info a person would need to help me.

Video is intergrated Mpact.Not sure if the drivers are the latest.WinMe is full version and been running it since september with no trouble, after I disabled the anti-virus.I've been playing 15 to 20 hours a week since July and this is the first time I've had problms.

Expect heavy trouble from WinME after you use it for awhile. It's even more bug-ridden than the original Win98. If it's at all possible, go to Win2000 or wait for the next version due sometime in 2001.

I can't endorse waiting for the next version of Windows, or at least, not rushing to install it. The next version will support Intel's upcoming 64-bit processors. Given that it's gonna be a 64 bit OS, I expect they'll try hard to pull every last bit of the old x86-based code; this has been a major problem for a long time. But, if that's true, then this is going to be a very vastly different, essentially all new operating system, about like the first versions of Windows NT. That had LOTS of problems for a couple years; I see no reason why history won't repeat itself.
