RE: Hello I'm New - superluser - 10-08-2010 Edit: Were the words ``I was trapped'' the only words on the screen for that part of the note? If so, disregard this. I had a somewhat similar experience, but then I figured it out. Spoilers of increasing directness for old infocom hintbook effect: Spoiler below!

Go to options and then graphics and then advanced. Under post settings, uncheck everything. Also reduce your graphics to the lowest settings possible. That seems to be what jens is suggesting, and he should know, I guess.

When I loaded it back up, I was stuck in a black limbo with floating starry things but no Orb, and no continuance of Alexander speaking. This is where I discovered the 20 autosave list lol.
