I just found my old X-COM CDs and am having some trouble.  When I load
Terror from the Deep the game runs at such a fast pace that I can't keep up.
Months go by within seconds and I don't have time to react to anything.  I
have tried Moslo and that doesn't seem to make any difference unless I'm
typing something wrong.  I also have the hardware acceleration all the way
down for the graphics card.

Running an 1800mhz with a 64mb agp graphics card and 512mb ddr ram if that
helps any.

Try an app called Turbo. Don't remember where I found it. 50k file and it's
free.
