- I've once encountered a similar problem on level 2. While I was roaming
- around, the program would freeze for about 1-2 seconds every 5-10 steps I made.
- I got pretty peeved and started to remove all my TSRs and reboot my 486 with a
- clean AUTOEXEC.BAT and likewise, CONFIG.SYS. And it absolutely solves the
- problem!!

- Try removing any unnecessary TSRs (you may try keeping devices like QEMM, disk
- cache, etc). It should do the trick. *;)
