Any help?

Presumably a timer bug, grab Turbo. (Google it.)

Timer bug? what is turbo?

[Unknown,Unknown]

Timer Bug: Basically computers became too fast for some older software. I am not sure what Turbo is, but I assume it simulates a now non-existant turbo switch on many 486/Pentium computers of the 90’s. Basically, it slows down the computer so that old software is usable.

I could be wrong on this, but… someone wil correct me 🙂

[Unknown,Unknown]

You’re right. Turbo slows down everything so you can get past the timer bugs on faster machines. With even more powerful machines these days, slow down utilities like Turbo and CPU Killer just don’t cut it.

Here, you can find a bunch of them:

Well, I did say Google it, so regardless if you knew what it was or not you could’ve done so 🙂

Anyways, those guys/gals are right, it’s a simple slowdown utility which you can load and set to, say, 30% and then try to pass the sequence.
