on an Athlon 1500XP, 512MB RAM!

They look marvellous once loaded, and play very smooth - but surely 3-4 mins is a bit much?

Bah, that reminds me of my C=64, while loading a game from the Datasette I had time to watch a complete movie on TV.

Sounds like you have some task chewing up the cycles. Some virus programs do that http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/smile.gif

Anyway, reboot, check your tasks, stop all the ones you can, turn off your virus software and see what happens

Are you running windows XP?.. i know someone with rougly the same system as you who is having the same problem. I blame it on XP.. XP is 10% slower than windows 98se.

It was Norton Anti-Virus, as suggested. Disable it, and it loads within 30 secs now. I do get slowdowns when a lot of monsters appear on screen, but I suppose I need a better video card (although I do have a Geforce 2)!!
