Agent_Jookia...

Try looking for some slowdown utilities such as MOSLOW. They will help you running old games at a slower pace.

See if you can go into the BIOS (e.g. by pressing DEL, F1 or whatever) during boot. Perhaps the BIOS will allow you to slow down the CPU to 66 MHz?

When I had an AMD K6-2 I used to enter bios and DISABLE CPU INTERNAL CACHE (L1), leaving the L2 enabled. Thus, yield me a noticeable slowdown. 😎
