Here is a list of the games we have used on the Pc Card.
I have two Pc partitions (recently increased to 980mbs each) - one has Window's 95 on it and the smaller one has Windows of Workgroups but is mainly used for Dos gameplay. Also note this is using a 586x100 card with 32 Mbs Ram allocated, Pc Pro V3.06 but without Pro Sound. Games come on CD Rom and are being read on a 12 speed SCSI CD Rom drive. The harddiscs are also SCSI so this may well help with the speed a little.

Here are two lots of results I got using WinTune '95 on my system dated 29/07/97 and 27/09/97 on my larger Window's 95 partition.
I have an original 600 Risc PC ( the one with the added mini 16bit sound card ) which was first upgraded to an Arm 700. It has since beem upgraded further to a StrongArm running at 204 Mhz.
The system has a 2.1 Gig. SCSI harddrive, a double-speed SCSI CD Rom drive and 32+2 Mgs of Ram. I have a 586*100 uncached PC card with PC Pro and Windows '95.
I am using a 990Mb PC partition as Drive C and allocate 24Mg of Ram for the Card. The display for the card is set at 800 by 600 in 256 colours (Palette colours.) Suggested screen memory is 585Kb but I allocate all 2 Mb's although when these tests were run I kept to 1500 Kb.( For the first test I was using a SCSI I card by Castle Technology but by the second test this had beem upgraded to their SCSI II 'Storm' interface. )
