Welcome to the Forum...

Which game are you referring to.. and what Operating system are you using?

If the game is too fast, somewhere in , usually 'Options', there should be a rate of game speed setting.

Please give us a little more information so that we may help you fully!

Patience.. I thank you for it

Hi there,

Try tweaking the hardware acceleration:

Click Start in the lower left corner of Windows Vista.
Click Control Panel, click Appearance and Personalization, click Personalization, click Display Settings, and then click Advanced Settings.
Click the Troubleshoot tab, and then click Change Settings.
Note: Change Settings will be disabled if the graphics card drivers do not support disabling hardware acceleration.

Move the Hardware Acceleration slider until it is one notch to the right of None. This is the basic acceleration setting. You can also try it at different stages thru the slider too.

Click OK twice, and then close the window.

i've tried that to no availe any other ideas?

You can use a program such as Cpukiller3 - that way you can slow your CPU prior to playing and then when you've finished, just switch it back up to normal again.

thanks for the advice it worked a treat cheers now on to my next problem which is i cant install vista for some reason it just keeps freezing at the first screen when i try to install it , and if i do manage to get it on it keeps crashing amd4800 2gig 250gig hdd onboard graphics/sound, im baffled can you help please
