i have a 2.2ghz celeron w/256mb ram and onboard audio/video, AC'97, Intel8450G (?) .
i turn on the 3 buttons, auto frameskip, speed limit, and CF timing.
and it (goldeneye) is almost playable.

Mostly, if not all, it's your video. Most cards 3 years older or newer (nVidia/ATI) are tons better than the onboard crap from Intel, SiS ect. ect. You could try gl64+evoodoo (or whatever they're called). They'll likely give you the best results givin your card. Try the downloads section. :)

thanks for the suggestions, but i don't think its gonna work.
Glide64 v0.7 ME SP1 (w/ evoodoo?) gives me a you can;t support some gl function (GL_ARB_texture_mirrored_repeat extension) and barely shows the game @9fps.
and 1964 OpenGL Graphics build 4.5.0 tells me Unknow Microcode and Exception in emulation thread.
so just rice for me.

If you're using Glide64 ME SP1 with Intel Graphics, use eVoodoo and not Hacktarax's glide wrapper. I have an Intel Graphics Controller and eVoodoo version 3.99 works fine with it but Hacktarax's just isn't compatible.:(

Onboard video generally sucks. nForce is an OK exception.

Hey. If you have $50 you can buy a GeForce2 MX400 from Wal-Mart. This is only a discount solution though. I'm just trying to give you a cheap alternative, but this card is REALLY bad for new games.
