Does anybody have the WC I & II collection CD?  If you do, you should
know the special program supplied with the CD used to disable the
internal cache (ICD), and therefore, slowing down faster processors.

	My question is:  Is it supposed to work with Pentiums?  I tried using
it on my 133 MHz (I wanted to replay WC I and II)  and also tested it
on my friend's 75 MHz, the results are the same:  the computers froze
up.   I have used the program before on my old 486-DX2/66 and it was
fine.  

	Mo'Slow is my other alternative, it works OK, except that the
animation becomes a little "skippy" from time to time.  (I slowed my
system down to about 45% regular speed.)

Thanks for any responses. 

	Tae
