Hi Sherrilafkas,

I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble with Syberia. There are a couple different things you can do to help Syberia to run better on your computer. Direct X is a good start. I would also check to make sure your video card drivers are up to date, too. Here's a link to an article that should help you with that:

Help My Games Run Better

I would also recommend adjusting the settings in the game itself. If you click on the Options Menu, you can switch the "Level of detail" to Low and the "Screen depth" to 16 bits. Also, be sure that Anti-aliasing is turned off. If you change any of these settings, the game should be re-booted for this to take effect.

I too have been having problems and will try the suggestions. What I don't understand is, the first part of the game is okay, until you get the egg from the eagle automaton.

There are a couple spots in the game that LOTS of people had trouble with. This is one of them. It is a glitch. I had no trouble at all throughout the game, so I don't know how to fix it, but you could try uninstalling & reinstalling the game.

I updated my directx and went into the options on the game and did the changes and it is back to working. I didn't want to reinstall the game and start over.

I don't blame you for not wanting to uninstall your game-- it was just a last resort type of thing.I'm glad you got it working, though, Good luck, & enjoy your game!

I have had the same problem and have made all the changes and done all the updates but it did not fix the problem this stinks ! to make it seamlessly throught the game only to get to this point and stopped dead in my tracks
Totaly Unacceptable
