Theme Hospital Problem
Right i have a problem with the music in the game, everytime i play it the music will play fine for about 2-3 mins and then go very weird as if it was playing veryyyyyyyyyyyy slowlllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. This must be a problem with the game as i have updated my sound card drivers. I have tried Googling but cant find a solution.

Re: Theme Hospital Problem
Yep. It could be a problem with the processor. It doesn't like Athalons.
I'd try it with a non-sp2 version of the OS if possible. SP2 can really bugger things up.
Then try some of the compatibility modes.

Re: Theme Hospital Problem
Get an old 386 from a skip outside any local business, take it home and run it on that instead

You could try turning the sound down?

Re: Theme Hospital Problem
The music was crap any way. It used midi, and the only good midi I have heard would be the MT-32, and the SB AWE32

Re: Theme Hospital Problem
I liked the rats running round - but then I did work in the NHS many moons ago - I suppose it just reminded me of the management at that time!
