PIII 600, 380mb ram, Win XP Lite ---- sound slow-----Why?
<< < (3/7) > >>
ark_ader:
Try .84 it will play ok on your P3, but today chips and boards are real cheap - just get a XP 64 3000 and a cheap board for less than £100. 

Then you can play nearly everything.
RayB:
Before doing all that other stuff, just knock the sound quality option down to 22500, or even 11050.

You'll notice a difference.

diverdown if you cant run Metalslug 5 on Mame, get NeoRAGEX5.0.  It runs fine on my 600 mhz, 256 megs of ram, with TinyXP installed.

Not sure if I need to configure something else, but I see virtually no change in frame rate by changing sound settings in v0102:

Adding:
-sr 44100    58.182782 fps
-sr 22050    60.564741 fps
-sr 11025    60.091084 fps
-nosound    59.915888 fps

I'm thinking about installing TinyXP on an old PIII computer I have for Mame - is there anything else I'll need to do besides install Mame and MaLa in order to play everything (I'll be using an UltraStik 360 and wiring all buttons to it).  Thanks!
