Status: offline 		After resolving some major PC problems i run spwaw and it plays very slow and jerky. A tank round can be viewed traveling for a second or two towards its target. This is how slow its become. I recall years ago i had a similar prob and resolved it in hardware acceleration i think. Where do i adjust the hardware acceleration and what is the recommended settings for spwaw? Your help is certainly appreciated.
