I once owned the Rayman Gold version of the game. Now i cannot be sure, but didn't the thing have a windows version with the game? I'm quite certain, but cannot check it as i have lost my cd.

This version has very laggy menus, probably because of the dosbox. I'm sure that GOG can't do anything about it.
But if someone confirms the existence of the windows version, i might start to hunt it from somewhere else. Gog-release is a little disappointing. With the audio-glitches, missing music and intro.

Rayman Gold had Windows-based autorun, but installer and the game itself was still DOS-based. There was never pure Windows version, I'm afraid.

As for sound glitches, I fixed them by setting core to "auto" in rayman's conf file. I'm not sure why GOG magicians put "normal" in there, but it really fixed all my speed issues. Also, you can decrease cycles (one of older DOSBox-based solutions for Rayman had 16k, GOG has 5x more) if you still can't get it to work smoothly.

Lowering the cycles made things worse, but changing the core to auto... now that was a hot tip. All the lagging, which was most noticeable in the sound, is gone. :D

Can't thank you enough.

I was having the same problem here.
Thanks for the tip =)
