8.3 Game or Timing-Sensitive Applications

   Some game applications or  applications that rely on  the computer's timer
   may perform  poorly in  Windows version  3.1. You  can try  increasing the
   performance by  turning off  the  TrapTimerPorts setting  in  the [386Enh]
   section of the SYSTEM.INI file, as follows:

     TrapTimerPorts=Off

   Note: The  TrapTimerPorts setting  is on  by default.  Turning it  off may
   cause errors  or  a  loss  of data  when  transferring  files  by  using a
   communications application. It is recommended that  you leave this setting
   turned on when
   using a communications application.
