From what I remember it was a bunch of High tech voodoo involving winmodems and such.

I have a P3 600Mhtz / 128MB RAM and Windows ME. They work fine. I'm guessing it is the video card. Might look for newer drivers.

There is a setting under options in tactical combat that speeds up movement. click on options when in tactical combat and then check fast tactical.

Besides the fast combat obtion, turn off the cd music, and turn off the hexs, these are also listed under options. all of these will speed the game up for ya

just some ideas mac

hexes are quite useful
as for fast game, i believe thats actually the reason why my game's aint too slow anymore (cant say, been only playing PBW simul lately)
fast combat is boring, i watch (not play, watch) the combats for a reason you know

I have the same problem when playing with sound. Simply turn off all music and sound and ships will move fast again. If you like the sound of weapons during tactical battle - turn it on for awhile then turn it off again.
