Worth changing processors?
AMDman13:
Try an older version of mame. Or add a sound card and disable onboard sound. On board sound is known to be a system hog.
My current set up is a Barton XP 2600+ with a SB Live Value running mame v103.
KI & KI2 work flawlessly.
I think if you did both of these suggestions as well as a good system clean up using adaware and spybot you'll notice a HUGE difference!
paigeoliver:
Part of the problem might be the games he listed. Are they running full speed on anything yet? I never tried them myself, but I remember those being games that were hopeless on current hardware not that long ago.
Malenko:
WarGods sucks so I didnt test it, but both KI and KI2 run just fine on my POS Dell Optiplex 2.4GHZ P4, even with the on board sound I had (just upgraded my desktop to a new X-FI card, so my old card went into the MAME PC)
you should clean out your registry and get rid of all the spyware you can if you cant run KI2 at full speed on an AMD 4000+ (my desktop is only an AMD64 3500+)
xmenxmen:
As someone else has mention, just doing a clean install every so often will gain you more speed.
FrizzleFried:
To be 100% crystal clear...PROCESSORS DO NOT SLOW DOWN WITH TIME. Whoever told you that is a dumbass.
