windows 7 - unwanted frameskip
Barry Harris:
I noticed the same hit going from XP to Vista.
The power plans are different post-Vista and the CPU enters power saving when idle. When using FBA the CPU is in low power until it needs to ramp up. I find the power state tends to fluctuate lots and I think this affects the skipping - I certainly know that changing it to High Performance (hence turning off CPU power saving) removes the issue altogether. The default setting is Balanced which has some pretty heavy CPU power saving.
AtTheGates:
i switched it to high performance, makes absolutely no difference =(

Weird issues you're having dude. I know it's probably a little crazy, but have you tried putting fba into compatibility mode?
It probably won't do shit, but it is worth a try. ^^
AtTheGates:
still no success. i wish i knew more about how win7 treats programs like fba, things like refresh rate etc. my monitor is set to 60hz, and fba is using force 60fps, but even if i switch it off, it doesnt change anything.

It is very strange man, I've been running 64-bit windows since it February and I've never had any issues with it slowing down -- (core 2 duo 1.8, geforce 8600 gt, 4gb of ram, etc).
