Messed up sound in ADVMAME

[Grauwulf]

I am having sound issues with ADVMAME and I'm hoping someone can help me out. My system setup: AMD 1gig, 256 meg ram, Mx-200 video card, SB PCI128 sound card. My SB line is A220 I5 D1 H7, and I have tried high DMA 3 and 5 as well. I can get sound working fine in early versions of ADVmame (0.62 or so) but when I upgrade to later versions my sound is all screwed up. Is basicly sounds like it is changing speed back and forth, like changing the speed on a record player. I have tried version .100 of dos mame and the sound works fine. I have tried every sound driver in the ADVmame documents. Auto gives me the warbling sound, seal driver do the same. Allegro drivers do not work at all. the vsync driver is distorted. Anyone else have this problem? And if so, how did you fix it?

Thanks!

Okay, I managed to pin down my problem, in case anyone is wondering. It was a combination of trying to re-use my advmame.rc file from the earlier version and a lack of processor speed. I made a AdvnaceCD disc with the roms in question on it and fired it up to verify the hardware could hack it. It ran Shuffleshot and GTG2k with no problems after a second or two for the system to catch up after loading it. The framerate was almost full speed all the time, so I know the hardware is just about at its limit. So after that I decided to scrap my old config files and start from scratch to get it working. I now have the same setup in DOS and it seems to be working okay except for the occasional hiccup. I also threw in a slightly (200mhz) faster processor, but I think I fianlly have this working the way I want.
