Are you using a no-CD hack? There is a video during the blessing that the game expects to find on the CD. Playing that sequence with the CD in should fix that.

Did you see this section of the Divinity readme file?

Quote
Problem: The cinematics do not play well. The cinematics are more like a slide show, block or even exit the
application.
Cause: the Bink player cannot play the movie optimally
Solution:
1) download and install the latest version of the binkw32.dll: www.radgametools.com
2) download and install the latest drivers of your video card
3) on the ATI Radeon cards, setting the monitor refresh rate to 60 Hz solved the issue:
a) right click on your desktop, select properties, settings
b) click the advanced button, and choose monitor
c) set the refresh frequency to 60 Hz, test and apply
4) if nothing helps, prevent the movies to run by deleting all files *.bik from the Static sub folder in Divine Divinity's install directory. You will not be able to see to cinematics, but you will be able to play the game.


You could try lowering the refresh rate to the headache inducing value of 60 Hz for that section.

If that doesn't help, you can zip the save game folder and email it to me (see profile) to try on my system.

I sent all 6 zip files at the same time. Email (or PM) me if they don't eventually all show up.

If I get floods of requests, I can always remove my email from my profile, though this didn't happen in the old forum. This particular problem I should probably be careful of, since it can be caused by simply not having the CD. Not many people using warez are going to visit the official forum for help getting around copy protection, but I have seen that tried.


Cybolt; no inconvenience, the email has not shown up here yet. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Hi!
All six files are here - thanks
My problem is I think my video card - even when I used software mode it crashed when Janus called the teleport gates and the when black ring showed up the scene is moved to the second gate - and in thet software mode I got the crash here. In other modes game crashed at the end of the scene. Visible was slowdown of graphics.
I tried with CD, I have newest drivers, even with 60Hz refresh rate (that was a pain <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />), also with deleted .bic files - and nothing worked.

Thanks you again - now I can finish the game...
Regards
