You got Populous to run on a 3000??? HOW? Use Project D to de-protect the disk, then copy the disk to a directory on your harddisk (let's say "Pop"). Then write a script like this (let's call it "Populous"): cd DH0:Pop Assign sys: DH0:Pop ; (I can't remember if this is necessary or not) run NoFastMem ;kill fast ram so game runs near normal speed. CPU nocache ; disables instruction cache to further slow down machine. Populous ; the name of the Populous executable This works for me... -- Fred Hamilton "Unlike most of you, Harris Semiconductor I am not a nut..." Santa Clara, CA -Homer Simpson
