The link below is what Gamehouse suggests if you have this issue. I'm having the same problem so I'll try of these as well: http://support.gamehouse.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/891
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
System Requirements:
Windows 7/Windows Vista/Windows XP
400 MHz Pentium 3 or equivalent
256MB RAM
DirectX 8.0
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
DirectX version:
. If you use Windows, go to Start and select Run. Type dxdiag in that box and press 'Enter'. You'll get a window with the information you need
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
. The free trials do work fine. My only other suggestion is to exit the game when the screen goes black. The custom cursor always seems erratic so you can turn it off in the Options menu of the game to get a regular white mouse pointer that moves at the usual speed.

It'd be annoying to continually exit the game, but the game itself is well worth playing

Cheers.

Any official's response to this? I'd appreciate it.

Can you describe the system you've installed this game on?

I got a Toshiba Tecra A2 laptop. Pretty aged computer, but the system requirements are matched to what the game specifies.

Help with the fuse sequence...

. The solution is different each time
. You have 6 fuses, so load four and note the indicator lights
. The easiest thing to do, is get all four lights to be orange [right fuse, wrong place]
. Then swap these around until all lights are green

Hints

. Swap the 1st four you put in, with only ONE of the other fuses at a time until all 4 indicators are orange [right fuse, wrong place]

. To achieve 4 green lights, leave at least one fuse in place as you swap around the other 3. Say, try moving Fuse 1, then swap into slot 2, 3 or 4 until you get green, and so on.

Downloaded Mystery of the Crystal Portal both times that it was the day's free game. The first time, it keep closing when I tried to place an item in the last scene. The second time (earlier this week) it shutdown when I tried to place an item when you explore the study once more.

Today's offering, Margrave Manor 2: The Lost Ship, looks fine until you enter the HO part - the graphics become a series of fine lines; it also causes the computer to hang up.

I'm running Windows XP, SP2 on a Toshiba laptop and usually have no problems running games.
