I am trying to play Dracula 3 again. I noticed a lot of movement in the video. For lack of a better explanation a vibration effect when moving around and on the subtitles. I have a Nvidia card and know I played this once before with no apparent problems. Is there some adjustment I should play with? I have tried the limited options within the game like slowing down movement and it helps but still have a jittering screen. Any thoughts on this are appreciated

Did you by any chance lower your graphics acceleration settings to play another game?

If not, check your drivers - make sure they're current.

I may have. How do you check the graphics acceleration? Thanks

You have to be running Windows XP in order to lower the settings, so if that's what you've got, follow the link below.

If you have an integrated video processor you might try allocating more shared RAM to it, but you'll need to enter the BIOS setup to do it. Most PC's display the key sequence (Like Press F2 to enter BIOS) when the PC is booted.

Is this the same PC you played the game on before?
