i havent tried any games exept the keens yet, can't find were all my old toys are but

specifily i am talking about keen 4

when i run keen the graphics are jerkey. Now the music plays fine and crisp. I can take my cpu cycles upto 8k untill the music begins to break up, so i realy don't think it's a prosesor power ishue. I have a p4 2.4 gig of ram grofce 4. My frameskip is set to 0
Would be funny if the game was always like that and i just never notised. it's only realy aparent when the level scrolls. Alot more aparent if i runt he game full screen

my guess is dosbox is not syncing the fps

any help on resolving this would be very apreshiated

Look at the version of the game in the initial screen (the one that shows the hardware). Here is my experience:
v1.0 and v1.1 work fine, scrolling is smooth and they don't require a powerful cpu.
v1.4 is very jerky no matter how you set the cycles.
So you probably have version 1.4, There's an option that says "fix jerky scrolling" but turning it on doesn't make a difference.

Bad luck 😀
