A few questions here, to try and get some info to help you out. Ok, first, does your system meet, or even exceed the minimum specs required for running the game? Second, how many running processes do you have while you are playing the game? Third, how did you acquire the game, via a store, or something like steam, or did you download it via p2p? Fourth, what patches are you using with the game?

Yes i have whats needed to play the game, i have no programs running, ive downloaded the game(but dont remenber from where, i downloaded it back in 2004 i think) and the patch that i used was 5.9 i think, and another one(but dont remenber wich one)

PS-Ive unistaled the game now and instaled it again, and the DIALOGUE bugs didnt happen...but they might appear later on, so i still whant to look on this problem in case that this happens again, this is not the first time that this happend to me, but the other times werent so "bad" like this one...

Get the latest unofficial patch, 6.0, by Wesp. Also, don't use any other patches like that, at all, unless they are compatible with Wesp's patch. Also, you can somewhat mod the game, but also be careful of doing that. I found a mod for Jack, and a couple of other, minor ones, but nothing too big.

It's a good idea to save before a conversation, anyway, just in case. You can use the quick saves, or even use a save slot, if you are doing a lot of saving. You can put a small description into the save, as well, like conv, for a conversation. I tend to make saves when the game starts to act a little funny.

This happened to me once...only because i went through the sound folders and listened to the mp3's of various characters. Somehow it screwed up the game

If I were to mess with anything in V:TMB, I would try to find them on the cd's, and copy those from there to an alternative place, and listen to them that way.

More specifically, with Windows Media Player. It does that by adding them to a 'library' of sorts of recently watched/listened to things. If you open WMP and remove the files from the 'library', the problem should go away.
