I'm operating with AMDK5-166Mhz;
32Mg RAM
Mystique 220 4Mb
Diamond Monster 3Dfx 4Mb
8X CD
2.5 Gb HD with windows allocated 101Mb swap file.
When using Formula 1 97 using Glide, the simulation is slightly
"jerky" in practice and qualifying modes, but virtually unplayable in
full race mode. Sometimes halts the screen for a full 1-2 secs (in
association with hard drive activity).
Using D3D it's virtually unplayable at all.
My question is this. Assuming I can only afford to make one change to
my system, which is likely to contribute most to improvement:-
Faster processor, more Ram, more video memory, more accelerator
memory, faster CD, or tinkering around with swap file?
