X-com 1 runs fine of my 450Mhz k6-2. I got the biudget re-realese which is think slows down most things to compensate - pallete cycling aside :( - apart from that, MOSLO it. Link is above somewhere. 20% works fine for most games on mine.

Nope I had no luck with the program :( . I used it to slow the game down to 10% but noticed no difference then I tried to slow it to 1% still no difference.

I think my problem lies in the fact I have a 1000mhz processor on the site it say's the program may not run on CPUs faster than 700MHz so I have a feeling thats why I can't use it.

Any more suggestions? I even tried to underclock my processor to below 700 temporarily but it wouldn't let me :(

did you try running command.com using moslo - IE

start->run->moslo /20 command.com ?

Thats the most reliable method of activating it. Although if you do that it slows down everything until you exit the DOS box (As I found out the hard way :( ). If that dont work, youll probly have to underclock your CPU to 650 (Never, EVER, trust it to run at the exact specification). I dunno much about altering clock speed on p4/athlonXP class chips, but a PIII or Athlon class can be dont through the BIOS.
