OOT Master Quest Page Faults

So I'm playing OOT:MQ on Pj64 v 1.6 and using Jabo's D3D6 1.5.2 plugin like the gameFAQ tells me to. However, when I pause, there's a long lag (like back in the days before the pause menu delay fix) and there's about a 30% chance that the graphics plugin will cause a page fault. I can 'minimize' the game and it will still run, but if I try to restore or maximize it the page fault comes back up even if I get out of the pause menu. Under the same settings OOT v1.0 works perfectly. There's no lag in bringing up the menu at all.
I'm not sure what to do. I've tried changing a few settings in the plugin to no avail. Can anyone offer a suggestion? Should I play this on an earlier version?

Also, I can't seem to get any of the cheats I add to work. The ones that came with the emulator work fine, but the Japanese language code I added for OOT doesn't work.

AMD Athlon64 3500+
Radeon X850 Pro 256MB RAM
2GB System RAM

sounds like the sub screen delay fix isn'g working for you.

That's definately happening, yes. Whether it is the cause of this or another symptom I can't tell. How can I fix this?

Here ya go. For some reason it's small, you'll have to click it to see the entire thing.
I'm not using any cheats at the time. I can't get ANY of the cheats for this game to work...

Here's what GoodN64 has to say about it:

not sure why you are using the D3D6 plugin with a decent graphics card. though that may not make any difference to your problem.

edit:
oh wait this is MQ sorry.. yeah try another plugin like Rice's

edit2:
shit no MQ looks fine for me in 1.6.. which version had MQ ballsed up?
i also can't find any mention of using 1.5.2 in v1.6x gamefaq so im thoroughly confused.

edit3: ah that was the debug version that had issues in 1.6, not MQ
you should be using the d3d8 v1.6 plugin then
you have driver problem i think.

yeah, was about to say that Smiff, but the debug error hes getting is related to one of the cheats, i got it also at one point.

NeoNFITC go to ati.com and download the latest Radeon Catalysts for XP

make sure they are the standard catalysts and not the catalyst for mobility kit.

I can get the latest Catalyst on Monday. That's when my DSL gets activated. I'm not using any cheats since I couldn't get any of them to work.

BTW, Smiff, this IS the debug version.

The notes of this ROM in PJ64 v1.6 says "[video] use v1.5.2 plugin" so that's what I'm doing.

ah.. its a debug version of MQ - our GoodName is wrong! thanks

currently:
Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (U) (Debug Version)
should be:
Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time - Master Quest (U) (Debug Version)

yes?
and yes, this rom has issues with Jabo's v1.6
you need to use Jabo's 1.7x or 1.5x or a 3rd party plugin

Where might I get Jabo's 1.7? And, yes, it is called "Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (U) (Debug Version)" :(

whats so special about the debug version anyway

That you can give yourself anything. Nothing else is really worth it, but it's the Master Quest. and it's the only copy of MQ I have...

you can give yourself anything in the non debug dump...the game does have cheats pertaining to that..

Ahh, yes. However, these are built into the code of the game. There are other things you can change too like where you start out and give yourself access to some never-before-seen rooms that were probably used for testing purposes and such. I don't think it was ever actually meant to be played as a game, but I'm doing it anyway since it's the only copy of MQ I have.

Anyway, can someone recommend a video plugin that will solve this problem? (Other than Jabo 1.7)

Also, as a side note. Since this is the debug version of the ROM and the first save slot is filled I had to use the second save slot to start from the beginning. Would this affect any cheats I wanted to use? Would having the 8Mb RAM option enabled have any bearing either?
