that's not even a card
that chipset is picky about sample rates, feed it 48000hz instead and it will sound fine.

it's definitely a refresh rate related issue. Did you try different video modes?
Don't upgrade your processor, it's 1247% more than enough for ZSNES.

After playing ZSNES 0.991 for a while on a 486 (YEP 486) I think i've noticed why there's massive slowdown in some games and my theory is this Games that use extremely high frequency instruments (i.e. c-5 base at 70khz) tend to cause the most massive slowdown.

Like the birdies say...cheep cheep :D
Most common P3 700+s are more than efficient for ZSNES as well (for ZSNESW, scalers and such)

fast games on MMX-less machines

So far i've found the following games running full speed at high quality sound settings on a 100MHz Pentium (ZSNES D 1.51 and 1.42, though 1.51 is slower): Battletoads and Double Dragon Last Action Hero Anyone else find any full speed games running on such machine? You could at least try DOSBox 0.72...
