    I just bought a budget re-release of the Sonic & Knuckles collection for the PC. Trouble is, because it's quite an old game and only requires a P100 to play, it's running really fast on my Athlon XP3000+.
    Is there anyway I can slow it down to a playable speed?

    Hi,

    just do a yahoo/google search for "dos slowdown" and you'll find a ton. I have had this game before - its a true dos game isn't it???? How are you running it??? In compatibility mode???? Or are you using a dosbox emulator?? If so the emulator may have its own built in slowdown mode.

    Strange thing is, it's not a DOS game.
    The box says Win 98/ME/XP
    Requires:
    P100,
    16Mb RAM,
    DX 5 or above,
    16MB graphics card.

    I noticed on the makers web site that I'm not the only one having problems.
