Eagle of Fire But you should not have problems running UFO or Lemmings 2 tough... k:

FreeFreddy With only 1 Ghz you only would be able to play some ancient, crappy, cheap on graphics games or some text-based ones... <_<

Eagle of Fire Yes. Please remember that this is extremely computer dependant, so my own cycles could not work for your own computer or, at the very least, not be the best setting you could have.

I think that if you have a computer slower than one gigahertz you may have trouble running the "newer" old games...

Double_H i get a corrupted sound
and slow down in the game

so should i increase the Cycles???!

Eagle of Fire I had that problem too when playing Lemmings 2 - The Tribes. At first I thought the game was running too fast even at the default cycle because the Lemmings were "walking" quite fast to my taste. So I got the cycles stupidly low (in the 100ish) before noticing a real slowdown effect, and the sound was very choppy along with the game. If I remember well I could not even see where my mouse cursor was because the game could not refresh fast enough for my moves... :crazy:

Fenris Yes i know this effect but this happens allready with a few thousand cycles more and it's just the sound who becomes jumpy. The graphics become faster.

FreeFreddy But only if you raise it too high for your PC. Then instead of being faster, it'll become slower again, just as if you would lower them.

Fenris Maybe it is because you raised the CPU cycles. When I raise them I often experience corrupted sound. Sounds a little bit as if I DosBox would skip single notes.

Ioncannon well games can run slow from the defult speed. Raise it in the config file.
