Hi Ive been playing Ultima 7, but the game runs way to fast on my machine :( Its very difficult to click on the NPC's because they are moving to fast, and fighting is a blur. Are there any programs out there that i can use to set the speed of my machine?? The machine i have is a Pentium/66. Thanks in advance Sami Korell (FIN)

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! Greg Basso x93b...@wmich.edu

I played U7 for a long time and now am playing 7.5. About a week ago I
found out that if you pressed the "T" key, a target cursor would appear
and all action would stop. Then you can move the target on whatever you
want to double click, click once, and shazzam! it's done.
I don't know if this feature exists on 7, but it's really handy, especially
in a crowded room...

Also, you can find the file MOSLO (I think that's the name) at
ftp.ea.com.
