 MH>  Howdy,
 MH>    I just recently started using Win95. Now I know that Apogee says

 MH>  of). I am only getting between 7-10 frames/sec on my P-100. If I use
 MH>  a boot disk & run in DOS, I get in the 20's if I remember right.
 
 MH>    Does anyone have any suggestions for getting Duke to run faster
 MH>  under Win95? Just re booting to DOS does not work because of the bug
 MH>  in OSR2 that dumps everything back into conventional memory when
 MH>  doing so. Does not leave anywhere enough memory to run Duke.

 JF> space.  I have 32 MB on both machines, and I haven't seen much of a

  Jonathan,
    Thanks for the tips. I have 40mb ram, so that should not be a
  problem, but I still only get about 10 frames. How is your DOS
  window setup?
  Mike.
