Privateer 2 windows version

Sanchez

The windows version of Privateer 2 runs alright except it goes as fast as my computer can. When you're landed on the planet it's fine because you get to go through the menus real quick but while in space it's so out of control that there is no way in hell that you can shoot anything because the game is running so fast.

Two broadband connections on one machine, feasible??

Paksmo

(I'm using WinXp. ) We have two 512/512 broadband connections to our apartment. I'd like to connect both to my better XP box to get the whole capacity used as we pay for it anyway. One connection would be plugged to onboard LAN connector and ther other to a PCI network card.
