Windows 7

[groundbeef]

Hello.First off I love this emulator...however i recently upgraded from XP SP3 to Windows 7 and performance has dropped significantly. Scud Race and Daytona ran at solid 55 to 60 fps on XP and both now are locked to 30 with same settings on 7. Is anyone else having issues with running this emulator well under 7? BTW my version of 7 is Home Premium x32.

What if you pause the emulation (Alt-P) for a couple seconds and restore? Does that help? Also, a few users have discovered a trick involving the task manager and processor affinity (do a search on this forum) that improves performance on some systems (although I thought it applied to XP, not 7). I think the gist of it was that you have to un-check the processor affinity and then re-check it.

Tried everything so far from the affinity trick(which I used on XP) to alt-p to different resoultuions to PPC changes...the games are all locked to 30fps. Even with one core running the games run at 25 to 30fps. Enabling both cores only locks the frame rate up to 30. I have looked at everything and I am not understanding the issue.

Odd...found a fix but it makes no sense. If I force VSync off from app controlled in nvidia control panel then it runs at 60fps. But if I let my apps control vsync then it runs at 30. Is Supermodel set to 30fps or vsync automatically?

did you tried setting the compatibility mode of supermodel.exe to windows xp?

Supermodel attempts to lock to 60 Hz using a timer. It's strange that your GPU drivers would cause it to lock to 30 Hz, but I think someone else reported similar problems.
