I'm trying to play the old Commandos game on my uber pc and it's too fast. What's a good program to slow down the cpu? I found Cpukiller3 but you need to register it after, I want something free. Thnx.

i can't remember the exact name now (fuck), but the name is DOSslow or DOSwindow or something (it'll be on all the abandonware sites), and run commandos within that

Just found CPUKiller, works good. Also good for the quick flash games to get high scores >:D

yeah... a dos simulator would make more sense than slowing your whole pc...
