If you want to run the game at higher resolutions such as 640x400 but the game runs too fast, you will need to install an SVN build of DOSBox, which you can learn about here. This should fix the problem on lower resolutions. If the game is running too fast, then upon opening the game, enter 'vid_wait 1' into the console. If the Mouse is too fast or too slow despite the in-game sensitivity adjustment, find the 'sensitivity' setting in the '' section of the DOSBox config file and increase or decrease it accordingly (default value is '100'). Most of the time, the 'auto' number of cycles should be just right for the game to run smoothly. If the game seems slow or choppy, increase the value of 'cycles' by 1000 (press CTRL-F12) at a time until it gets better. This configuration should produce good and smooth game performance on most computers. Open the DOSBox config file and find the '' section of settings.
