Do you still have sounds when you aren't playing the game?

CPUKiller. smile Try it.
Or select speed slower (if it's about tactical speed, in combat)... Speed must be not a problem on win-version. I haven't any - and I have P4-3500.

Did you already slow down tactical speed? All speed settings (along with "Save game" button smile locate under big "?" button in tactical mode. I personally easy use even maximum 5 speed scrolling, but try slower settings. smile

BTW, buttons "next/previous guy" along with flashing alien numbers (click on it smile give you more handy centering than map. wink
