KiwiNZ Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 I hope there is a genius out there that can help . I am trying to play Warcraft 2 and the scroll is at light speed . I have tried it in compatibility mode and that hasnt slowed it , I have set mouse scroll at the slowest , still no luck. It is almost unplayable/ Which is a shame as its my sons favourite game. I am running Win XP professional on Pentium 3 , 1ghz , 256mb Ram and a Gforce gts 2 with 64mb ddr ram Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtgriffith Posted February 27, 2002 Share Posted February 27, 2002 I had the same problem. Too bad. It happened after I upgraded to a 1.4 GHz processor. Warcraft II is a great game. I remember reading somewhere about a program that will slow down your computer so you can play old games. I'll see if I can find it. [edit]Ha Ha! I found it. It's at 3D Realms website in the Archived news section. The story is called NEW SLOWDOWN UTILITY http://www.3drealms.com/news/oct01.html[/edit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1337 C5 m4574 Posted February 27, 2002 Share Posted February 27, 2002 Not even warcraft 2 is worth potentially F#cking up ur comp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxxCon Posted February 27, 2002 Share Posted February 27, 2002 it won't do your puter any harm. all it does is run idle cycles on your cpu making it less available to the game thus making it slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
