Runspeed bugged?

[Gobgob frum Grobb]

Having troubles on my toon with runspeed - had a few guildees commenting on it as well so it's not just my perception.
I've noticed it more recently trying to keep up with fleeing mobs.

lvl 44 SK
Not encumbered.
Result is same at 120/130 weight allowance as it is with heavy stuff bagged at 90/130.

I'm not carrying a lot of coin.

I'm not ducked and am not walking as opposed to running.

Got a SoW from a lvl 40ish shaman yesterday at the same time he SoW'd himself and he blew past me a few seconds later like I was standing still and disappeared into the distance.

Any suggestions?

Found solution for the meantime.

1) Set eqgame.exe to run in win98 compatibility mode only.
2) Set system performance for "balanced" to "performance" or some such.

Not sure which made the diff or if it was a combo of both but, seems to be running around ok now and can actually kite stuff - which I couldn't do b4 even if the mob was snared.
