Just very recently, I have required a great copy of Command & Conquer + The Covert Operations in a single big box.
Besides some stupid things like, The C&C cd's only work on win9X no MS-DOS install possible, which is a shame in my opinion, therefor I won't be able to relive the ingenious E.V.A. installation and play the game in MS-DOS. The CovOps installation is, you never guess DOS only... ... riiight....
But nevertheless, the add-on adds extra maps to the windows version of C&C thus no harm is done.
And running this game in 640x400 will run like... smooth on this cpu right? Right?
Well, close but no cigar. It has speed drops. It won't run nearly the speed that I am used to play the game at. And when some heavy fighting starts, It's watching a slow-mo of C&C. The horror.
So, what am I doing wrong? Yes with this setup I can play Tiberian Sun and Half-Life. Between 15 and 30 fps on a vd1.
Builds:
Xp3000+ gf3 ti200 + vd2 SLI 12MB + 768MB + SB live @ WinXP & 98 Dualboot.
P2 350mhz + Diamond Viper V550 + 3Dfx Voodoo 2 12MB + AWE64 + 128MB SDR @ msdos / win98.
