I don't know what was wrong, Lord Kane. One day I went to your site and it was fine. The next day I'd let it load for 15 minutes and nothing popped up. Was that way for like, 3 days or something. I just checked it now and seems to be fine.

The settings I have don't eliminate the battle swirl entirely, but there is not much slow down during it. The only time I get serious slowdown is major screen swirls, like going into the Bend of Time island. Music slows way down to a crawl along with the graphics. A few moments later, when the swirl is done, it goes back to normal.

Hushy, I'll give those settings a try. I used to use Pete's latest OpenGL2, but that's not been as good as the 1.76.

Another issue is Alt-Tabbing. It only shows a windowed portion of the full screen when I switch back to ePSXe. Is there a way to prevent that other than setting the GPU for windowed instead of full-screen.
Hushy,
I've tried your settings. One causes the battle intro to merely black out. It didn't even get the entire screen. The other setting caused major lag. I've also tried a couple suggestions from Lord Kane's site like keeping the psx aspect ratio. Nothing seemed to help much. So, I've decided to go back to my settings and suffer with a little lag occasionally.

The only way I've found to prevent the alt-tabing window-effect is to have it in a window already. I've been playing it at 800x600. I might try a window of 1024x768 just to see if it survives the effect.
Setting the screen in a window, even at 1024x768, the Alt-Tab effect in nullified. Just FYI.
