    Default The Game's Sound Crashing & Load Slowly

    Hello. I'm a newbie
    I would like to apologize first if this kind of question has been asked by another person before. I'm really desperate in solving this problem of mine

    So, I'm using a NO$GBA emulator and there's these 3 games that wouldn't work perfectly every time I open them. Every time I open them the emulator starts working slowly and decrease in speed. Like, from 100% to 54%, 73%, and so on, it never reaches back to 100%. Also, the pictures start moving very slow and the sound started to crash I couldn't even hear what the characters in game are saying.

    I was wondering if this had something to do with my laptop data spaces, because it might be too full so it the game won't work properly and need more free spaces so the system will work properly? Suppose, yes. Do I have to delete some of my files?

    The other games I used to open work just fine without the sound crashing or the emulator working slow all of the sudden. I just couldn't stand hearing the crashing sound.

    I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate, it was Windows 7 starter when I bought the laptop though. Free spaces on Hard Disk Drives C are 40.1 GB. Free spaces on Hard Disk Drives D are 44.0 GB. And my screen resolution is 1024x600

    And I was wondering if I should mention the games' names too? And should I add more RAM to my laptop?

    Here's some details about my laptop, I found it on a sticker that sticks on the right side of the laptop. I don't know if this would help make this problem easier to be solved or not.

    "Intel? Atom™ Processor N450 (1.66GHz, 512KB Cache); 1 GB Memory; Storage 250 GB HDD; 10.1"; Computer Performance Base Score 2.4"

    I hope I could get some help soon (:
    Thanks in advance

    That laptop is not meant for emulation.The reason why the sound crashes is your cpu.It's slow because of its build.
    Laptops are not meant for gaming or emulation,they are just for business purposes.If possible buy a desktop pc with a intel core2duo or intel i3 processor then you wont have choppy sound.

    Is it possible to put one of those processor into the laptop?
    Also, is there anything I could do for this as long as it's not "buying a new PC"? Because I can't just buy a new PC for gaming purpose. ):

    I would try using a different emulator, the most likely reason why it isnt working to full capacity is because its a pretty outdated emulator, try searching and downloading DesmuME. If you want to stick to NO$GBA, try to find the option that allows frameskipping, it'll help improve the gamespeed.

    I've used DesmuMe but it still doesn't work ):
    Is there any specific version of DesmuMe I should try?

    If one version doesn't work, then I don't know what would work. You say that No$GBA has some functionality, What I would try is go into its settings and lower the quality of sound and lower the quality of the graphics. If there is an option to sync the audio with the video, check that as well. If the sound continues to mess up, you might want to just disable the sound entirely, that will boost your game speed garanteed. Sorry if this sounds technical, I tried to put it as simple as possible.

    Is there any possibility that the game will work properly with sound if I add some more RAM to the laptop?
    And the problem is, I really want to hear the sound because the sound has something to do with the game ):

    Thats always a dissapointment, no, there really isn't much that ram can do for you, its mostly CPU that you need. Sorry,
