Hey All,
I recently switched to a mac because they're a bit more resilient and laste a bit longer but up until a few years ago I was all windows. As a result, I have a bunch of older windows games that I can't play. I was given a copy of VMware fusion (3.1.3) which I thought would allow me to play them, but when I start a game they all work but are super choppy and frame-by-frame. I've tried reinstalling VMware tools, starting the games in compatibility mode and disabling hard disk buffering, but none of them have really helped much. I'm at a loss. Please help!
Below are my specs and I'm trying to play games like heroes of might and magic 3 and Kohan: immortal Sovereigns.
