hmmm, "Street Fighter II" is working nicely for me with a default install of zsnes. CPU is 1.84 GHz Athlon, soundcard is SoundBlaster Live!. there is some strangeness in the zsnes audio code. it intentionally uses a different audio buffer size than SDL reports. why, I don't know. this could potentially be a problem with certain hardware. I also see zsnes using almost all available CPU. what CPU and soundcard are you using? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
