I'm having some interseting performance issues.
I have 2 machines: A Pentium III 850 Mhz laptop and an Athlon 650 Mhz desktop. When running on batteries, the laptop operates at 700 Mhz.
On the Athlon setup, scrolling, clicking on cities, moving units etc... is very slow. When clicking on the different advisors, it takes a long time (about 4 or 5 seconds) before the screen loads up. Everything seems to be slow. On the Pentium III laptop, everything runs as smooth and fast as can be, even when its running on batteries (700 Mhz).
The laptop runs on Windows 2000 and the desktop runs on Windows XP. So the bad performance on my desktop could be:
1. Because of the Athlon processor.
2. Because of the operating system (Windows XP).
Is anybody out there experiences bad performance on Windows XP or Athlon systems?
