 > Hello,

 > It seems like some kind of regression. Unfortunately I can't remember
 starting from which ScummVM version. But the version 2.9.0 still has the
 same issue. In the game 'Sanitarium', if move the mouse cursor quickly
 around during the game menu screen - the game will crash thus it hardly
 playable. It is very easily to reproduce the crash.
 Hello, I can reproduce a crash that might be identical with the one
 reported here.

 I am testing with the GOG English version of the game, on Windows 10, with
 a local build from current master HEAD (2.10.0git) (development build) in
 release mode (--enable-release --disable-debug).

 The crash for me happens when I enter the in-game menu (eg. by pressing
 Esc) and then move the cursor to the top part of the screen, if it's not
 already there. From debugging it seems that this is an elusive bug,
 potentially caused by the optimization level used for the build, connected
 with the code that calculates where the eerie eyes in the center of the
 screen should be looking at (following the cursor movement).

 Could you confirm that this is the case for you too? Does the crash only
 happen if the cursor is moved on the top part of the menu screen but not
 if it's moving around (fast or slow) in the other lower two thirds of the
 screen?
