Interplay Descent

Does anybody out there have any ideas about how I could possibly install and play this game? I have the original CDs, but under WinXP, and at these clock speeds, it runs so damn fast it's ridiculous.

Wow... That's an old one.

I am not sure that you can run it with XP.

Here is the "Self-Support" page link:

Use Dosbox. You may also want to find a GUI frontend for Dosbox as it is a console only program. You might try one of these

Dosboxer

I use this one
