Re: Windows: Upgrading BasiliskII.exe causes screen scaling change

Thanks for the suggestions. The changes *do* allow BII to be full-screen, but the software rendering of the text & graphics is fuzzy do to mismatched virtual display size-to-actual display size. (Why do I like this specific resolution? Because it gives me the best tradeoff between extra real est...

Windows: Upgrading BasiliskII.exe causes screen scaling change

Today I updated from a 2020 build of BasiliskII.exe (if I knew how to tell the version number, I'd write it here) to a 2024 build of BasiliskII.exe. I cannot get the emulated screen resolution to be the same between the 2020 build and 2024 build - the 2020 build fills the screen (with great scaling)...

Re: My BasiliskII sound drops out during playing games

This is an old thread, but I think I found an important variable. For years I had my monitor connected to my video card through DVI & my speakers connected to the motherboard sound jacks (Realtek chipset, I think). I got a brand new monitor and had to hook it up through HDMI. I plugged my speak...

Re: My BasiliskII sound drops out during playing games

A little context - I'm running System 7.5.5, and don't have a Sound Manager extension. I'm using the Quadra, Centris 610,650,800 ROM file (checksum F1ACAD13). I *always* get sound to start. It sometimes dies after a couple of minutes. cooz - have you tried different ROM files? That's next on my list...

Re: My BasiliskII sound drops out during playing games

cooz - I have the same problem on two Windows 10 machines (one desktop, one laptop, vastly different hardware). My problem is intermittent - most of the time the sound works just fine. However, about 1/4 of the time the sound dies a couple of minutes into the game and I have to do a task manager / f...

Re: BasiliskII sound quits, then freezes

starfirebt, did you ever find a solution? I have two different Windows 10 systems that have the same issue - after a while (1 minute to 1 hour... seems random) the sound stops working. CPU usage (Windows Task Manager) goes up significantly (from like 1% to 25%) and stays high. Emulation still works,...

Re: System Alert sounds with BII and system 7.5.3 on Win10 64bit

I figured out how to fix it (at least on my machine). I'm running System 7.5.5 on Windows 10 with a recent (year 2020) build of Basilisk II. I found that changing my ROM image - from a Quadra 950 to a Quadra 650 (checksum F1A6F343, Quadra/Centris 610/650) let me properly set the system sound. I'm gu...

Re: System Alert sounds with BII and system 7.5.3 on Win10 64bit

I'm running into the same issue now. I fixed it (I don't remember how!) on one of my Windows 10 machines several years ago. Now I'm installing the latest BII (year 2020) on a different Windows 10 machine, and I cannot get my selected error sound to play - just the default beep. I know this is an old...
