GBC roms seem to run far slower than GBA or GB roms

This just something I need to find a different emulator for?

HIGH end system here =\

Funny that.....VBA works fine with GB, GBC and now,(finally after messing around a little...and with the help of some, like Forgotten ), GBA is fine. Well, I guess it depends on each persons machine...

Very nice rig, Duality.

But, I don't think it's your sound card......it could be something to do with some settings you've enabled/disabled....

Check this thread of mine,

http://www.ngemu.com/forums/showthre...threadid=32454

and try use the settings I used to get VBA runnig sweet for me.

Try using my registry file for VBA 1.4 to see if it helps... you'll just have to change a couple things to get it working.

Problems can be because of auto frameskip (your computer should be fast enough), so make sure auto frameskip is not checked.

And sound drivers can cause problems as VBA synchronizes the speed by making sure it doesn't overwrite playing sound.

Why not use Forgotten's Visual Boy for GB/GBC if VBA gives you some trouble
