||
|| Here's another type of workaround which may work ...
||
|| You can change the priority of a program to speed it up, or slow it down.
|| Click Start / Click Run / Type: taskmgr and then press ENTER
||
|| - Right Click on the program and select: "Go To Process"
||
|| - Right Click on the process and "Set Priority" to High or Low as needed.
||
|| - You can speed up games even more by ending all other Applications that
|| are listed in the taskmgr, and right click to disable all icons by your clock.
||
|| - I was going to explain how to use the start command from the RUN
|| command line to launch any application from however this article is already
|| published on the internet and covers the entire buffet, including affinities.

||
|| - You can slow down your games even more by running many programs,
|| or use the Moslo utility:
http://www.hpaa.com/moslo/v132/moslo132.zip
||
|| Moslo Instructions - Note this is not for the casual player - Use only if needed:
||
|| Unzip the program to the same directory as the game you want to run slower.
|| For the next steps to work, you have to have that directory open in windows.
|| Note: Get the process name using taskmgr, then click Start / Search to Find it.
||
|| Next click Start / click Run / type: command and then press ENTER
|| At the DOS command prompt type: MOSLO /## GAME.EXE
||
|| Note: ## is a number (actually, percentage ... using /50 runs the game at half
|| normal speed) and GAME.EXE is the name of the game you want to play.
||
||| ok i have he game but its the 98 version now i have a xp home edition laptop
||| i went to compatible tab n changed it now it runs but so slow it takes for
||| ever to move what can i do to make this game run normally?
