Cannot view computer screens in game - Salvadojazzkat - 05-09-2010

WARNING CONTAINS MINOR SPOILER

I'm playing Black Plague right now and I'm in the computer room where the Doctor attacks you. I've locked him in the blue misty room and I'm trying to load the programs onto the data cards to restore the power. The only problem is that I can't view any of the text on the in game computer screen so I can't see what programs I'm loading on.

I haven't ever been able to view the text on computers in this game but it's never been a problem before. Needless to say it's a huge problem now, I can't progress in the game Sad

I got lucky with blindly clicking and loading the proper programs onto the red card some how Big Grin but that seemed to be the end of my luck Undecided

*EDIT*
Forgot to put up my specs (again)
I'm playing on the Windows XP partition of my iMac
(didn't know they made a Mac version D: )
Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600XT
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.40 GHz
2 GB of RAM
I looked up videos on youtube of people playing that part and tried to reference where their cursor was to get the proper programs but it's just become far too frustrating.

Can you help me out?

This should be fixed in the latest version. Where did you get Black Plague from?

I bought it from Best Buy as the collection about 2 months ago or so.
Is there an update I can get to fix it?
I'm itching to continue playing this game Big Grin
