This is my wtf? ??? question for you all. I have an athlon 1ghz machine with 1ghz ram in it on XP with an arcagevga. I run all sorts of emulaters just fine - mame, snes, genesis, tg16, and gba. The problem is with the 8 bit consoles and gb and gbc. These pertty much lock up they go so slow (think 10 minutes for a button press). I've tried all of the nes emulators(nester, nesterj, nesticle, fceultra), meka and dega for sms, and whats really surprising is visualboy advance for gb and gbc (gba games work flawlessly though with the same emulator!) What is the problem here?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

That sounds very strange. Try Virtuanes for Nintendo. It is excellent.

Your shiznit is busted. That is VERY weird. $20 says UltraHLE will run at full frame rates too. But lil' old NES will chop along.

Well, what do you know...Virtuanes works like a charm! Thanks octopus. I thought for sure it wouldn't, but it does so Im not complaining. (btw - is there a modified version so that esc exits the emulator like all of the others on stuzzas site?) wishful thinking.
So 1 slow emulator down...2 to go. master system next.
odon - your almost right. ive never tried ultrahle, but project64 works alright (about as good as can be expected - still not very good).

You can modify the standard version of VirtuaNES to exit when you press the ESC key. In the VirtuaNES.ini file, under [ShortCut], change the TBL00 line to TBL00=000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010001
I read that you then have to change the .ini file to read only so that the modified shortcut would not be overridden, but I didn't, and it hasn't caused any problems for me yet.

Eh? When I look at the ini file, all I see are gibberish ascii characters.
