Has anyone else had dodgy sound when playing the GoG version? I have no idea what ScummV is or how to use it, i just got the game from the site and installed it like they told me to. All the sound is reeeaaaaalllyyyy slllooooowwww and sounds like i'm listening to it through a fan. all chopped up and stuff. anyone else had this problem and/or knows how to fix it?

Hi,
are you on XP ?
Any chance you lowered/disabled sound hardware acceleration to play some other game and forgot to inccrease/enable it again ?

Click on Start, clik on Run.
On the box type dxdiag and click ok.
Switch to the Sound tab. There's a slider that controls the level of sound hardware acceleration.

I'd just like to mention that because of ScummVM, the game doesn't actually run like a DOS game. DOS games couldn't access any hardware acceleration anyway.
