In fact, it looks something even more weird... I'll try to recap, maybe it will be os some help to the guys who wrote the emulator
So, basically the emulator was not working in my pc (windows xp sp3, just re-formated), but it did worked on a virtual machine (windows xp sp3 too) That made me think it should have to do with some drivers (graphic card, sound card...), so I started uninstalling some of them and see what differences would it make Finally, I found the solution: After uninstalling the driver for my sound card (sound blaster x-fi xtreme audio) the emulator DID worked, and DID NOT if I install the driver and the emulator later on I mean, everything is ok if I install (copy) the emulator.exe the first thing, and then I install all the drivers that my pc need, but if I do it the other way around (first the drivers, and later on the emulator), the emulator crashes... weird...
