Sonic Adventure Crashing even with CPU at 50... Help, please!

Dear fellow Chankast users,

I've recentley started playing Sonic Adventure on this wonderful emulator. It worked perfectly at the beginning. However, after playing the Casino stage with sonic, I need to take the ice stone to the Mystic Ruins to unlock the enterance to the icy mountain. So, I go get the ice stone, and the last picture I get is sonic riding away on the train (and the loading Mystic Ruins thing). Then the game just stops.

I've lowered the CPU speed to 50 (as it said in the FAQ), and though this works usually (when he's not carrying the stone) it does not work when he is carrying the stone. I've tried with and without the Capcom Hack (the Capcom Hack fixd various errors in Shenmue II), so now I'm lost.

What can I do to resolve this issue before the last of my hairs are gone?

Thanks in advance and best of wishes,
xycos

sorry, man, i don't know you'd do to fix this. since you've played around with all settings, then it seems sa1 isn't completely playable(unless others that've beat the game using the emu wanna share their settings, etc..).
you could try downloading a save and just continuing one level up from where you were, or i guess you could just play the game on your dc or get the pc version. :shrug:

Um has anyone else got the random "iocontrol error" message while playing Sonic Adventure? is there a way to rectify this?

I'm using Chanka .25 new and old grfx with various settings tweaked . . . crashes in the same spots though (I was just avoiding those spots, but now it crashes going into a level, ARG!

To answer xycos question about crashing. Have you tried the old GRFX version. I did that, then the emu randomly decided it like the old one better . . . got past that point, then switched back to the new GRFX core . . .

I found at least a partial answer . . . Use Daemon tool 3.29 (an older build) as a workaround for that error . . . now if only it would stop hanging in certain spots . . . ahem(Sonic stage 5)ahem . . .
