Martian Memorandum Runs Slowly with Sound Enabled

ID: Q101950

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT 3.1
Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server, version 3.1
Martian Memorandum, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

With sound enabled, Martian Memorandum runs very slowly.

CAUSE

This problem is due to the fact that Martian Memorandum speeds up the timer to 16.5 kilohertz (KHz). Windows NT is trapping all interrupts, and therefore this causes very slow playing.

WORKAROUND

To avoid this slowdown, disable the sound.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.1.
