So I installed SimGolf on this laptop.

Lemme give you the specs:

Windows 2000 SP4
1204MHz Genuintel
376mb of memory
Directx8 (installs with the game)
S3 Graphics Twister

Now, I can play the game for up to 2 minutes before problems occur. The game continues normally. NPCs walk about on the course, talk and whatnot, play the course and so forth. I can scroll over the map and hover above keys, which change and even display info of the tile. The game works completely normal, EXCEPT The sound hangs, and I can't click on ANYTHING . I've tried reducing the graphics acceleration, to the point where the game no longe runs,and I tried reducing the sound acceleration gradually down to none. No Dice. It's not covered in the manual or the website or the forums I've searched.
