Hi,

I've got a problem running Descent on my Athlon XP 1800+. It's going much 
too fast! Well, actually, some things go much to fast. It fires faster, 
spins faster, but accels en decells the same. Even in multiplayergames, my 
ship bounces and fires much faster then the ones of players with slower 
machines. Is there a fix for this?

I've got another question about Descent 1, 2 and 3, about the mouse 
interface. Descent 1 and 2 have the problem that even on the fastest 
setting, the mousespeed is slooooooowwww. Is this fixable?
And in Descent 3, when the mouse is set to "mouselook", even on the lowest 
sensitivity, it goes faaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssttttttt. A cm from the mouse 
spins me around 3 times. Again, is this fixable?

TIA

Halfgaar
