My configuration:
Mac book pro 2,4 Ghz Intel Core 2 duo.
2Go 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
Mac OSX 10.5.3
GeForce 8600M GT 256 Mo

K, thanks, I'll try this out and see how it goes.

Thank you soooo much, your a life saver, however, now the screen just drifts off to the right until its out of view, which then it exits, do you have any knowledge of this problem

the problem is the first time i installed it (im using guild wars trilogy) it installed fine i installed it into a steam bottle. I tried to run command -windowed-on shader thingy but it said The command "/Users/elizabethflores/Library/Application Support/CrossOver Games/Bottles/guild/drive_c/Program Files/Guild Wars/Gw.exe"-dx9 -windowed -dsound returned 1.

StdOut:

StdErr:winewrapper.exe:error: cannot execute L"\"/Users/elizabethflores/Library/Application Support/CrossOver Games/Bottles/guild/drive_c/Program Files/Guild Wars/Gw.exe-dx9\" -windowed -dsound"

so i thoght installing into the steam bottle was the problem. I then installed it using the spurrted software option but right after i installed it it ran guild wars which was again a black screen with fire sounds so i had to restart it and i couldnt run the command because there was no gw file in that bottle........help

nevermind that i got it to start but the window drifts to the right and i restarted it but now when i run the command the computer freezes but the mouse still moves......help
