movie lock-ups, playback problems.

hello. video performance is pretty bad on my system with PSX emulators. seems to be the same way on bleem and VGS. horribly stilted, sluggish videos, and it causes lock-ups. the lock-ups are the real pain in the butt because they always happen the same, I can't get around them, and then I can't play the game. For instance in SOTN, if I let the intro logo play out it locks up. I can press start and get past it, and then play the whole game, but at the point of beating Richter (or shaft) there's a movie that has to play, and it reaches a point and just locks. now I can't get to the second castle and have pretty much wasted my time. I could probably find a save state somewhere, but that's not the point, I want to be able to play games.

my system specs are PII 266, 192mb, 8 gig hdd (rather abused), 50x simpleton brand CD-ROM, STB Velocity 128 card, and Voodoo II card

Any ideas whatsoever about what I can do to fix this problem?

Or you could try...

Hmmmm,

No offense but you have 192 MB of RAM in a PII 266. I know RAM is cheap right now but that's just unneccesary. Sorry I don't know what's causing your problem but I suspect it's bottlenecking. Either upgrade or buy a PSX, if that locks up you can always take it back to the store.He He.
