    Default Em and safe mode

    Me again guys. Okay so, I have the Visualboy em for GBA and GBC. My problem is, I cannot play my games or even my em while on the net or ofline. Solution: I play in SAFE MODE.

    I need feedback from someone else who plays this way because, I want to know if the speed is suppose to be twice as fast? I guess I get why there's no sound, but that speed.

    But this I don't get: When playing Oracle of Ages, I can't get Moosh to Fly over the holes. He cam jump one hole and that's it. And before you ask, yes I know how to use Moosh. It's just that in the safe mode he moves so fast or something. I dunno...he just will not fly over those holes.

    Also,for those of you who have used the Super Password to start a game of Ages; Doesn't the game allow you to choose your buddy? So this is what has happened to me lately.

    I usually play OoA using the Super Password, and I got to choose my Buddy, Ricky. Well yesterday, I was given Moosh. Nobody said clules do you want Moosh's Flute, or anything. I went to Nunn Highlands to visit the foreman and low and behold the landscape was set for Moosh. Well, I tried to shake it off as just a glitch, but on the way back when I met the Blue Fairy, instead of her telling me, there is an animal in the forest. She told me there was a winged bear. So I'm fit to be tied. Ordinarily, it wouldn't be a problem, except Moosh can't fly over the holes. And, without the lsackers, the game is over. So now I can't play the game online or in safe mode. And there are parts in the OoS game that are so tough without the rings (like Madhandla and the Eye). I need the rings.

    Anyone got a clue as to what's goings on? Thanks.

    Why so fast in Safe-Mode, eh? It's because most drivers and programs are "disabled" so you can "diagnose" problems on your PC though it, but not meant to play games nor run regular programs. I think you can load your sound drivers, but need the program to do so. I have SoundMax with a control panel, though loading it enables it. Why can't you play the emulation though normal setup? Is it too slow? Not sure of your PC specs, but maybe a program is hogging memory in the background. Might want to post ya OS also. Not sure about the games themselves, not a GBA player, but your first issue sounds like a memory lacking problem to me.

    Yeah, Desert Drifter is right about that. If you want to use no$gba to increase some more speed then use safe-mode.
