it's probably the IDE CD Driver installed. I run the build on QEMU 0.11.1 without any slowdowns and without the CD driver.

I installed it over DOS 5.0 with MS-DOS CDROM CD Extensions 1.25. Maybe this causes the problem.

Open AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS and remove any lines about MSCDEX (1 line in each file IIRC)...

Well it works although i didn't want to delete it as i am making a video about upgrading to every build of Chicago, so that i need CD support.

You didn't delete it, you just disabled it on startup... Just put those two lines back in and you're good to go.

Chicago used VXD driver for CD, so no need for MSCDEX.
