wine users - Apr 2012 - Re: Counter-Strike 1.6 extremely slow

I had the same problem. Arch Linux, x86_64, a Nvidia video card. Counter-Strike
1.6 became like 100 times slower even in its menu. I resolved it by downgrading
to
linux 3.2.13-1
lib32-nvidia-utils 295.33-1
nvidia 295.33-1
nvidia-utils 295.33-1
