Good Morning Folks , Question on SimCity running with Windows .... I installed it over the weekend and started to try it out , works great, but I noticed something strange .... it ran slow ( on graphics ) ... ummmm. So I dropped out of Windows and started it up from DOS .... runs nice ( graphics fast ). Back into windows I go ... it runs slow... I created a PIF file ( at first I hadn't ) and tried again ( still slow ). On the PIF file , I tried to make everything as exclusive as possible ( including video ) , but nothing seems to make the graphics go any faster. Any suggestions , I suspect it has to do with W3 and SimCity wanting video memory , but I'm not sure. Any help is appreciated , Thanks , Jim Langston
