Slowing down pc and flash game

[missy]

Hi!
If I slow down my pc with some software will online flash quiz also slow down speed?
Is it dangerous for my pc doing this and is it reversible (speeding it again up as before)?

Is there any other way to slow down online flash quiz?
Thanks for info.

You.. want to slow down your PC with software?

well, I don't know, is there any software that slows down processor speed?

[LemonRising]

It probably exists.
Why would you want to though?

maybe she is like a secret agent in training and wants to sabotage PCs?

slow down processor speed? underclocking? You can do that in bios...it's not unsafe - it actually helps your processor run cooler which is good long term.

some processors allow you to scale down without actually underclocking in bios. depends on your mobo and cpu. you could also install a virtual machine or something if you only want certain applications to run slower.

Sounds like they want to cheat in a flash game by making it slower?

google'd, clicked, read a thread on a different forum, google'd again, found an application that shuts down/clogs a variable amount of your CPU... I was about to post it here when Muffin pointed out to me that we don't really want an application like that readily available for the forum to use in our Arcade; so I'm not posting it.

Also, as an aside, you should be careful with a CPU lagger because if you don't really know what you're doing you could pretty easily crash your computer... Just sayin'!

Also, if we see suspicious high scores show up with inexplicably long times in the arcade we reserve the right to delete high scores and dole out infractions... Just sayin'! (Unless glitching the game would also slow down the timer that posts to the high score, in which case I'm wrong to think that a red flag like this would even go up.)

Yes, I was asking because of a flash game quiz with timer. But it sounds too complicated. I give up.

Thanx anyway.
