This is a hack for the built-in Windows 7 (and Vista) card games that allows for arbitrary framerates and update rates.
It's not perfect, I think there might be some frame pacing issues that cause the games to feel choppy at times, but it's better than being stuck at 30 FPS.
It also enables playing the games on systems that lack the necessary software licensing policies.
This hack only works on 64-bit versions, but it shouldn't be too difficult to adapt for 32-bit versions.
