greetingz m8s...

first time i played AOE2 (a long time ago) i used a 150 pop limit, and made a 120 ppl army. about 30 of those were ships, and other 30 were siege weapons. The city was huge, with 3 rows of walls, and lotsa buildings... That time, i was running on a Celeron 466 / 256 SDR pc100 / Riva TNT2 ultra, so i got a HUGE slowdown

. Frustrated, i unsintalled the game and kept the savegames. a lot of time later, i upgraded to my today specs ( AthlonXP 1500+ / 256 DDR / Asus A7V266 / The same graphic card

... i tryed it again, and my surprise, it was as slow as ever!! I'm preety sure it's not my comp (Max Payne 1024*768, everythin @ max plays sw33t, and 3D mark gives a nice result)...

so, any help on this would be apreciated

thkx in advance

Why did you kept the same vid card Neo?

Anyway, can you send me the savegame and/or the map (whatever ), I want to check it out.

is the game itself slow or only when you load the saved game, it becomes slow?
