Gauntlet Legends at 95%-100% at 2.5ghz...

...that is something I'd like to see.

I am running at 3.7ghz core2duo, 64bit,  and while Gauntlet Legends is PLAYABLE... the sound stutters, etc...

What version of Mame are you running?

In my linked thread for instance, I got much better numbers for gauntleg out of 0.132 then I did 0.136, enough that it might kill sound stutters.

I just use a PSX emu for that stuff.

I have a E8500 Core 2 Duo at 4.0GHz on Win7 64 bit running MAME 64. Video card is GT240 - if it matters. In attract mode I get the specs that people normally list for this game. If I actually play it, then the frame-rate drops well below 100%. If I put it into auto-skip mode I can play about 1 & 1/2 levels before I get to an area where the frame-rate hits near 50% and then the game locks up. I've asked around these forums and I can't get anyone to say that the game is actually playable on their system.

Howard_Casto: I don't know about setting up MAME for multi-threading. What setting controls this?

Well sure, but there are a select group of folks that would like to buy a new pc for the sole purpose of mame.  Playing ports isn't quite the same.  To me:

original > mame on arcade hardware and monitor > mame on any device >> ports
