My dragon hunter was insulted by the magicians and attacked by Paladins for no reason a few times so he wants revenge. Only, when he picks the key then opens the gate, a movie plays showing the gate opening, then three camped orcs, then blzzzzappp!. ("Access Error Violation"). So, anyone know what is up? Tried a couple of times and my fire wall and anti-virus program is off. Yahoo! Messenger is closed (it seems to cause problems).

Well, since nobody here knows, I'll let you in on the workaround to this bug that I got from another site: hit escape after the movie stops and go to you tube if you want to see the full cut scene (although its only a few seconds more then where it usually crashes for people).

I just encountered the same error.

I never did find an actual fix - just the workaround.

This may help...I hope so

Same here. Luckily it's only a few seconds that we miss.

. That seems like a lot of effort just to fix a short cutscene! :-/

Just play on Win Xp

Better still is just do the original suggestion and press Esc when the cutscene starts. ;-)

. It worked fine though. Glad I found your post!
