The only problem that I have with believability is that u64emu2 ran Killer Instinct 2 at full speed on my 1.6Ghz Athlon XP processor (and I recall getting that same speed on a 1.3Ghz processor), but xmame runs it at only 75% speed. Of course, I'm not a coder so I can't claim to know the variety of factors that could be playing a part in my problems, including any speed hacks or tricks used in u64emu. -- See the documented lies of Pastor Frank: http://tinyurl.com/6009 Saddam's name coded in a famous and old book: http://tinyurl.com/6mr4 Back To The Future DVD Warning: http://tinyurl.com/6007 d a r k s t a r @ i g l o u . c o m | atheist #29 _______________________________________________ Xmame mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://toybox.twisted.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/xmame
