Emulators and Vista.

The Frederick · July 14th, 2007

I've been having trouble with virtually every emulator in Windows Vista. Some people tell me they work fine, but they all crash for me, some in game, some don't even get there.

Anybody know anything useful?

Well, it would help if you were a bit more specific....like:

1.) Which emu's are you referring to (and what settings have you applied for them)

2.) System specs & O/S (is it x86 or x64)

I have Vista Ultimate x64 installed, and all the emu's work beautifully.

Tried every emulator on the list at ngemu, except psxemulator (too simplistic) and SSS (not standard).

Using Pete's D3D on Nice, Eternal SPU, N-Rage Input, SaPu's CD-ROM.

Got Vista Home Premium, Intel Core 2 2.13 GHz, 3 GB RAM, GeForce 8800 GTX.

These things seem to always be related to graphics card drivers.
