The Gray Area
Fun With Emulators
Emulation has always been a rather touchy subject in the gaming industry. On one hand, it’s a great way to preserve many older classic games. It also showcases a lot of amazing talent, since the vast majority of emulators are fanmade. On the other hand, many game companies are highly protective of even their older properties and look on the emulation scene with contempt. Here at CGW, we stand somewhere in the middle. That being the case, we’ve compiled a list of some of the better emulation projects on the Net—but we won’t tell you where you can find any games to go with them. You’re on your own there.
APPLEWIN
Want to play Oregon Trail? Karateka? Ultima IV? Then check out this slick little German-made Apple IIe emulator.
FCE ULTRA
If you’re a fan of the old Nintendo Entertainment System, FCE Ultra is quite possibly the best option available for playing some of those hard-to-find older games.
MAME
The Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator (MAME) is probably the best and best-known emulator; it’s able to run an absolutely mind-boggling variety of classic arcade games. If there’s a best place to start, this is it.
SCUMMVM
Ah, those classic graphic adventures like Maniac Mansion. If only you could play them again. Wait—with this emulator, you can! UOX3 The Ultima Offline eXperiment 3 is a fanmade Ultima Online server emulator, handy for all the jaded old-school players who prefer the golden days of UO.

Tech Tips
Five ways to speed up Windows XP.
1 Turn Off Visual Effects
Sliding menus and drop shadows slow your system. Right-click on My Computer and select Properties, then choose the Advanced tab. Click the Settings button under Performance, then choose the option “Adjust for best performance.”
2 Ditch Unneeded Services
Go to the Control Panel, choose Administrative Tools, then select Services. Change the following services from an automatic start to a manual start: Automatic Updates, Error Reporting, Indexing, Messenger, Nvidia Driver Helper, Portable Media Serial Number, System Restore, and Task Scheduler.
3 Modify CPU Cycles
Most programs are automatically given a Normal priority. To speed up a game, move its priority to a higher level. Start your game and then Alt-Tab out. Run the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete, then choose the Processes tab. Right-click on the game program file to select a new priority. Once you close the game, it automatically returns to its default priority.
4 Lose Start-Up Items
Choose Run from the Start menu, type “MSCONFIG,” then select Startup from the menu that pops up. Uncheck anything unnecessary, such as RealPlayer, Kazaa, any messenger programs, and Microsoft Office.
5 Pitch Useless Files
Go to the Search function under the Start menu. Search files and folders for all files ending in .bak, .old, and .tmp—these files can all safely be deleted. Then defragment your hard drive to reconsolidate data.
Your system may be slowing games down, but with a few tweaks, you can enhance your machine’s performance in less than 10 minutes. Try the following and see if that UT2003 mod doesn’t run faster.
