The saga continues...
I realized today that I hadn't verified that my (slower) Vapor would run normally, at the proper speed, with the 200mhz U50 chip that was in my original Vapor (and runs properly.) I pulled the U50 chip and swapped it in the other Vapor (that's running at 150mhz) and recorded video. To my surprise, the game ran at about the same speed as with the Flagstaff U50 chip -- roughly 3.8% FASTER. This was with the exact same compact flash drive/adapter that was in my original Vapor.
I'm kinda stumped now. About the only thing I can think of to try is to throw a new battery in and set all the settings the same as my original. (The 150mhz/Vapor has a dead battery, thus everything is at default settings.) I don't have high hopes though.
