I increased the CPU cycle even up to 100,000. No effect. The installation is maximum, the sound is off. It still works slow as hell.
Any solutions?
PS. I use Daemon Tools to emulate the CD, could that be the problem?

- Start with a low cycles setting (the default 3000 or so is a good starting point)
- Open the Task Manager and go to a tab that shows you CPU usage (assuming you're on Win2K/XP)
- Run DOSBox in a window
- Run a game inside of DOSBox
- Adjust the cycles until the CPU usage is steady around 90%. That is the maximum cycle setting possible on your system
Also remember to try core=dynamic inside your dosbox.conf file.

Could you please explain the command to type inside dosbox to change it as core=dynamic?
In the CVS I believe it's "core dynamic" I don't believe this is in .63.

It's easiest to change the setting in your dosbox.conf.
cant seem to find the download for Dosbox CVS, where can i find the link if there is one?
Well if you want a pre-built CVS version, I recommend this one:
My sig has a link to a thread with lots of info and links for CVS builds.
What is this Kronuz' performance patch? Does it really work good? Where should I get it?

When opening up DOSBOX cvs, it automatically mounts the C drive. i read the read me and -u removes the mount but when i type it in it says illegal command, and it won't let me mount the folder i want cause C is mounted. suggestions?
It's actually something more like:
mount -u C
Also, DOSBox doesn't mount any drives by default. You're probably either using a frontend like D-Fend, or you've added mount commands to your dosbox.conf.
I've seen some CVS versions which does just that (Ykhwong's?) but definitely not official 0.63
