Runs with issues

This title can be made to run with emulate virtual desktop enabled,
but even at 1024x768 it has a tendency to lock-up hard when anything
graphics intensive needs to be rendered.

That is probably the worst of this - as it only detects 1 CPU core,
it claims the hardware it's running on is below specification.

Just a bit of detail to add to the above:

I can get it running into the game using 800x500 resolution, Win7 bottle with emulate desktop set to 1440x900 (native) and all the graphics set to their lowest settings. The game itself is very laggy and mouse control is fluctuant and rapidly freezes (although keyboard control functioned for some time afterwards, this game without a mouse is unplayable). Sound is also broken up but when playing is fine. Attempts to run the game at higher resolutions trigger a rendering error message and locks out the game. The game's launch screen registers three versions of the built in graphics card (Radeon 3200) of which only the top one will allow the game to launch. There is additionally the error message mentioned above regarding the detection of only 1 processor core.

Tested on a MacBook Pro i7 2.2GHz under Crossover 11.0.
