Re: Slow ships
What progs are running in the background?
Try to delete all background programms! I have the same problem as you, when connected to the Internet! If i will shut down my connection and remouve all background programm (systray and explorer should still remain) everything runs well!
How to shutdown those progs?
Use STRG+ALT+DELETE only one time - a window appears, where you can see all background programms running.

Re: Slow ships
Ah yes, this is a wierd one. You have to put one foot on the floor and keep the other one in the air while playing. Make sure any fleets with the letters "B", "D" or "E" in their name have between 7 and 13 ships in them, and it often helps if you are cooking popcorn in an adjoining room.

Re: Slow ships

Jesus Dogscoff! What the hell are you trying to do to this guy???
The popcorn has to be in the next room TO THE RIGHT! It will crash your hard drive if it's in the left room....
That was close!
