Post by: on February 04, 2003, 03:02:23 PM

Hey

I have install OS 3.9 with WinUAE!!

someone also running a emulated OS 3.9?

if yes

Does your sound work 100%?

Does anyone have a config file for winUAE where the sound is perfect for OS 3.9?

or

Maybe try to help me with it

Reinstall Direct-X 8.x, probably the problem.

Oh yeah disable primary sound buffer!!!!

 primary sound buffer-checkbox removed and disabled. It is useless and usually
  only caused huge slowdown problems. NOTE: Users of R3 or R4: Make sure primary
  sound buffer-checkbox is disabled.

lower the Khz to around 22.000 in the sound property tab in WinUAE and switch over to Mono. I know, it sounds a bit rough but you get fluent graphics that way. :)

Really? Maybe my system is just really really fast? I run emulated 100%, stereo, 44100, everything! No slow downs! I can even play games like Payback or Quake and get real good frame rates :-o I have a AtlonXP 2000 w/DDR 333 MB

Well, I only got a measly PII 450 so I wouldn't know... :) On low-end systems this is a good way to improve framerates in games.
