Hello,
After playing Interstate '76 for a while, or simply doing anything else on the computer for a while and then playing I'76, the game starts to stutter heavily and only rebooting the machine makes it play smoothly again. I'm using Win7 32 bits but it already happened back when I had WinXP 32 bits. It also happened on dad's old laptop that had Vista 64 bits, later upgraded to Win7 64 bits, still happening. Is there a fix for it? Maybe a Windows process? Sometimes this is really annoying.

You using the GOG version, or the original? I've got the GOG version (lost my original CD back in the day), and I'll try firing it up this weekend to see if I encounter the same problem. I'm on Win7 64, btw.

It does that in every mode, Software, Direct3D and 3dfx with every wrapper, including nGlide.

The original version, Gold patched.

Anyone? This problem is driving me insane. I got my hands on the GOG version and it does the same thing.

I read this already. It doesn't mention the issue I'm having.
