are you using the MFC or Wx builds?

 

i can't guarantee Wx will work on K7 processors, but the MFC build should work fine.

where did you get your build from? the builds hosted on sourceforge are built with MSVC 2010 SP1, which has a bug fixed regarding the /SSE switch using SSE2 instructions.

Yes i got the build from the windspro emulator pack and i am using mfc builds, the Wx one runs slow.

this processor does not have the sse2 instruction on it.

I'll check if downloading MSVC 2010 SP1 (or visual c++ 2010 sp1) and installing it does fix the problem

Thanks for answering

installing the runtime will not affect anything, the emulator has been compiled with MSVC 2010 (no service packs) which results in certain operations haveing an SSE2 optimisation applied incorrectly.

Translation: Get a binary that's compiled properly. :banana:

the wxwidgets version will run slow if using simple video driver, if you change to something like cairo or sdl it will actually run better, but in terms of stuff I need to finish my work on getting some stuff stripped from the wxwidgets ui, like making cairo graphics a linux option instead of including it with the windows version, I mean while it works on windows it's nothing special and just increases the need for the runtime.

all of the files on the source forge project page are built with /SSE on VS2010 SP1
