Hi All
,
I am struggling to understand something:
I am currently running WinCab on an older system ((dedicated) 400mHz), AT/AT compatible with the current display set at 800 x 600 (lol..my first pc, resurrected...
).
I have added a sound card but cannot confirm the graphics (I think it is 32M on-board, but could be wrong, might be 16, or less..).
I am running W2K Pro and have adjusted the Allegro files as instructed.
My problem is this:
When I run the program, I am finding that at times the song tracks will jump (i.e. go into the song listed above/below it, but I think this is caused by damaged disc's during rip),
pause and replay the last line, or give high-pitched feedback when a page is turned. It doesn't happen all the time (pause between page turns - all OK - maybe 1 in 6 times...?).
I have read that this sort of thing might be a buffer issue...*Pauline Hanson - 'Please explain'* (Aussies will understand...lol).
So, is this a hardware or software issue? Do I need to increase the processor speed ?...do I need to expand the graphics to take some of the pressure off the processor...or is it simply a file issue?
Sound isn't my problem.
I have dropped my graphics back to the minimum, thinking that it might be the problem, but to no avail. I have no problems running this at work (faster pc's, XP...?).
I am no expert, so any advice would be welcome...please help... If more info is required, please ask...
p.s. can you tell I like a beer or six...?
