Ok, please don't take this as an insult but, are you sure that your computer's cmos is configured correctly. I have an Athlon 650 and the morons I bought it from did not confiruge the cmos correctly. Get a benchmark program from the web and see how fast your computer is really running. If the cmos is not correct, then use it's optimal settings option.

wish i could help. i'm running SE4 on an dedicated 933MHz processor under NT with about 2 GB ram. I still get some delays once in a while, but nothing like you're describing. There is a switch in the registry to extend the "not responding" tag, but i'd have to look to remember it. also, try promoting the se4 process to take 100% of resources to increase the speed...

I built it myself hences the OC. Anyway I found why it was taking so ****ing long look at the screen shot, that many ships didn't even touch the colony, they just moved around which took like 5 minutes, then one more ship moved into the sector and the process repeated itself, there where 50+ ships set to move into that sector one at a time, that would take hours and hours.

BTW Took me one turn and three shots in tactical mode.

You might try disabling all animation.

There seems to be built in delays. e.g. there's no "fast" flag for strategic combat animation vs tactical, pre-turn ship movement in the galaxy, etc.

Also, if autosave is on you might clear the savegame directory of the history files. I had 65K+ files accumulate when I used autosave 1 turn.
