Some customers whose laptops or netbooks are powered by one of the Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family of processors may find that the on-board (integrated) graphics of those processors may be incompatible with the interactive bonus features of this game. In such instances the interactive bonus features may be partially or completely inaccessible.
Some players might notice that the "scrolling" and "zooming" features may occasionally stop functioning. The issue has been reported on a few occasions, primarily with Windows 7, but has not been consistently reproduced. If the condition occurs use the compass control on the bottom or the keyboard arrows to navigate in the room and solve the level. In some cases restarting the game may be necessary.
In Chapter 5, going into the TreeHouse, some players may observe an occasional an item request for a "frog." There is a "blue frog" located in the tree on the first level, but that frog is not selectable. There are several frogs in the TreeHouse level but sometimes only one can be selected. To find the correct one, simply use the hint to have Sprocket locate the frog.
Players may notice that if they press the key sequence CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to open the Windows Task Manager while playing the game in full-screen mode, and if they then choose "Switch to" The Clockwork Man - The Hidden World, the game attempts to restore to full screen, displays a black screen for a moment, then returns to the desktop. The game will remain minimized but can be maximized by right-clicking on the game's tab in the Task Bar and then clicking "Maximize."
