I got rid of my speed problem by using IBM sounds instead of SoundBlaster
[AdLib??] sounds.  There has got to be a better solution than this.

I have an additional question for running Civilization:
When I run it under a full screen dos session, my pallette gets screwed up:

This occurs when I run CIV in VGA mode and then one of the cities builds
something, and I am sent back to the main map.  All shades of green turn to 
a single shade of pink, and other colors change sothat the whole color
scheme looks awful.

If it matters: I have a Diamond SpeedSTAR 24X video card.

Any comments on either the original question or my question would be greatly
appreciated.
