suggestions for slower computers Options

[Romulas]

I ran into a very annoying problem the night before last. Started the shadelord battle and was amazed that he fired so many spells right off the bat, don't have the exact number but it was alot.

What this did other than destroying my party was slow my computer down to a crawl. The characters that were not slowed from his slow spell could still hardly move and could not make it from the door before getting killed.

The question, are there specific settings that I can alter that will make this a less computer intensive fight? This is the first enhanced encounter that has done this and might be as bad as it is because the battle scene is in the dark and I think that maps like this are more difficult and computer intensive. Just my opinion.

Yes, legality had nothing to do with it and I didn't mean to imply that it did. The number of spells I think is alittle extreme but thats my opinion.

As for restarting the computer, you have a point and I will try it. I know after exiting the game completely my computer chugs along for a little bit rapping on the hard drive then its fine. I believe that it is rearranging the memory rescources and so forth.

I know that my computer doesn't have the best sound/video sharing methods for cpu cycles (cheap motherboard) and this might be something to check as well. I will try shutting off all sound for that battle and see what happens. I remember having to do that in a previous game just can't remember many details.
