There are enhanced graphics out there, but loading them would probably drag
down your FPS.

Yes, just go to the control menu. You can chose keys for the different
actions. Actually if you load it without a joystic installed, it should
DEFAULT to keyboard.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

No you didn't...

Celeron 700 was a 66FSB chip. Multiplier was locked at 10.5x, and
impossible to unlock. At 100MHz alone, you'd be pushing 1050MHz, quite a
goal for a Coppermine Celeron...133FSB would net you 1.4GHz, far beyond the
limit of the Coppermine core. Only way you could get 900 from a 133FSB
would also be to have a 6.75 multiplier, which doesn't exist.

details..... ;-)
was it the Cel 670 then? For sure it ran on 909 MHz after switching FSB to 100
MHz.
Cannot look it up anymore :-(
