Hi VisualBoy Advance is running at 214%!! It's very annoying how do I make it work @ 100%
I'm using a AMD Sempron 3000+ (Clocked 500Mhz extra) I tried to clock it to the normal speed with no success, what am I doing wrong?
And, yes, I did try different frame skip.

Hi Tux0r,
Are you using the CLI to launch a game? If so, then I'd recommend trying to run the command
gvba
It's a GUI for VisualBoy Advance, just like in Windows. Too bad it isn't added to the GNOME/KDE Menu by default. Anyway, after you run the GUI, go to Options -> Frameskip -> 0 .
This will make the game run at 100% speed with no frame skipping.
Hope this helped!

Sound is still very weird and it won't stop at 100% :(
EDIT: It goes @ 100% if I 100% throttle but sound gets even worse :(

Sound has always been wierd to me on VBA... Try using different KHz, most of the times work for me.
BTW, what type is your GFX card?

I use 44KHz! Lower will cause it to f*ck up more :/
My mums AMD Athlon 2000+ works @ 100% with perfect sound and that's not gr8 since I have a better CPU lol..
GeForce 6150 integrated GPU with 256MB DDR2 shared ;) Works like a charm.
