	Well my machine is faster than yours and I have no problems when I
just turn off turbo.  My machine drops back to around the speed of a 486 66
which is fine for Older Ultima games where there was no speed control. 
However I know that not all machines have turbo switches so just give Origin
a call (their BBS) and get a file that slows down your computer.  ALso did
you check in your CMOS setting.  YOu can always turn off caching which will
kill most speed!
