Did you do it right?

Trying to edit zsnesw.cfg,...

; Percent to Execute [50 .. 150]

Execute = 99

Or start ZSNES with the -p 99 switch.

The -p switch takes an argument, which is percent to execute, exactly like editing zsnes (btw i am dumb).cfg to do the same, only instead of setting it in the config file, you run ZSNES with it so it only affects ZSNES until you close it.

Try 70% if 99% doesn't work.

Setting it to 70% makes the main CPU run at 70% speed and setting it to 150% makes it run at 150% it's normal speed.

Why would you want to do this you ask? Because ZSNES does not 100% correct timing speed. Changing the percentage of execution adjusts the speed to a point where certain games will work correctly. It is just a fix for timing bugs.

You should try experimenting with various settings. You can try 72%, 80%, 90%, 110% etc.. You may get lucky and find one that crashes less often or fixes the problem altogether.
