Weird 040/060 Libs and speed
« on: November 23, 2003, 10:00:45 AM »
Hi all
First off I was really happy when I first got my Apollo 060 75MHz having upgraded from a 25MHz 040. When I first had it in my tower under OS3.1 it was great Doom and Breathless and Napalm where running at good speeds compared to the 040 but ever since I upgraded to OS3.9 Doom and Breathless are running slower than my 040! Dooms FPS counter shows I get about 3 FPS on average, more if Im looking towards walls.

This should not be happening! I fiddled around with my processor libs. The install disk installs a dummy 040 librray which then accesses either the proper 040 library or my 060LC.library

I got rid of the Dummy lib and the 060 lib to see what would happen. My computer booted amazingly fast and workbench opened draws fast aswell fastre than when I had the specific 060 library installed. But if I tried to luanch any programs it would crash and guru! even with the dummy 040 lib installed the computer was fast but programs even simple workbench pref programs would crash! When i reinstalled the 060 lib the computer would become stable but does not run at the speeds I think the 060 is capable of and im getting P****d of with it now.

Is there anyone out there who can help me? If so please reply to this post AND PM me

Thanks all
