Re: Changing the cycles in [CPU] ?

Yes, it's the same. Also, I touch the heatsinks and chips and fans in my computer all the time while it's running. Just touch the case of the power supply first to ground yourself, then be careful not to touch any chip pins or small components.

There's no technical reason why it couldn't, but Eugene Gavrilov (the developer) isn't really interested in concentrating on gaming support. EAX is stupid anyways. It is to sound cards what Glide was to video cards: a proprietary API whose sole purpose is to help a company maintain its hold on a …

in DOS
When running DOS games in Win95/98/ME, the OS doesn't emulate DOS sound functions unless such functionality is built into the drivers (or if the hardware is directly compatible with old DOS sound cards). You can try to get the experimental Win9x port of VDMSound to work, but you'd probably be better …

I can confirm that Creative used Ensoniq's DOS drivers for their PCI cards right up through the early Live! series. They of course took out references to Ensoniq (as Creative owned them by then), but they still used Ensoniq's proprietary .ECW wavetable MIDI instrument bank format. Also, the Win9x …

I ran Win2K just fine for over a year on a PII-450, and WinXP on a PIII-550 (with XP themes and most effects turned off of course) - each with around 512MB of PC100 RAM. The "smoothness" you describe is probably because the multitasking is much better using the NT core.

Works now. Note that this should also work: Z:\>CD C:\S Z:\>C: C:\S\> DOS keeps track of the current directory for each drive letter, and you can change it without changing the active drive letter. The important thing to know is that you can't use cd to change the active drive letter itself.

I haven't used it for over a year as I don't have a Creative card in my system any more. However, I really enjoyed it when I was using it. I should warn you that if you don't like the default setup it comes with, tweaking it is VERY complicated. To really tweak it, you have to open up a graphical …

You and Moe probably, and anyone else who makes changes to the MAME-derived OPL emulation code. I should mention that the current official MAME version of that code is different from the current DOSBox version. I don't know enough about how the OPL code or DOSBox work to be able to determine whether …

Sounds like it's running your video card harder than anything else. Stuff to try (although I'm sure you've covered most if not all of it already): - latest nForce drivers installed - latest GeForce drivers installed - latest non-pirated version of HL2 - don't overclock your video card or CPU (maybe …

I thought that the subchannel data was where that was stored, and that most formats don't include that data as part of the image. Rather, they usually use an additional .SUB file. I could be wrong. Edit: looked at the site. Looks quite interesting and useful.

You should be installing CVS builds over the top of the 0.63 release so that you get those extra support files (readme, DLLs, example dosbox.conf, etc.). Well, except dosbox.conf, which is better to have dosbox regenerate for you so you can see the newer options in it.
