Mame sound stutters/echos please read
CitySlicker91:
OK here's my problem. I bought a Pentium 3 800 MHZ processor, 256 MB of ram, 10 GB of hard drive computer off of eBay. It's a dell optiplex gx115 if that helps. when i try to run any games on Mame (any version even the old versions of Mame, also even the oldest games like Mrs. Pac-Man) The sound stutters horribly rendering the game unplayable (This-his is street-reet fight-ighter). The framerate is fine usually running at a silky smooth 60 FPS. I have tried to mess around with every setting... nothing seems to work. I have a AC '97 integrated sound card, but have even gone to the extreme of buying a cheap soundblaster audigy with the same results. The only other thing I can think of doing is upgrading my windows 2k to xp. I have no idea why i am having these issues it seems like other people have worse specs and are running games fine. I'm sorry if this question has been asked before but I can't find any solutions.
gamecreature:
Might be your graphics card. Also, what version of Mame are you running?
Havok:
I would check the goofy things that can mess up any program first:
* Run a Windows update
* Update all your device drivers
* Defrag the hard drive

Thanks for replying guys. I'll try all of that. I am running an older version of command line mame so i don't think it has anything to do with that ts version 0.96 i think.
ppilot:
.96 is only a year or so old, isn't it? There's no way your computer is going to run that. Try like the 0.53 version.
