FPS problem and others...

I know my card isn't very good but I have no choice since I am getting my 9800 Pro RMAed.
In SM64, I hover around 30 FPS and I never drop lower or go any higher no matter what settings I use. In Zelda2, I hover around 16 FPS and no change in settings helps. In Zelda1, I hover at 20 FPS with the same problems. Paper Mario stands around 30 FPS. First I would like to know if these FPS is normal for my system? My resolution is at 1280x1024 and my AA is at 16x since it makes no difference what AA I use.
I hope my FPS is better when I get my 9800 Pro back but I want to know whats wrong.

Lastly, in Paper Mario when Bowser breaks into the castle, all the sprites are black no matter what my settings are. I am using Rice's latest plugins btw.

If you're talking about real FPS, with most Nintendo 64 games, they aren't made to go any higher than 30 FPS. Only some games are made to do 60 FPS.

That´s right.

For super mario 64,zelda 1,2, use Direct 64 ALPHA, best plug-in ever for those games.
