I tried out Screamer the other day and I kept noticing a lagging, choppy quality to it, especially in the music.
Is there some setting I can adjust in DOSBox to fix it?
In case it maters, here's my setup:
Windows XP
1.6 Ghz Pentium M
1GB ram
ATI Radeon 9000M

Dell D600 eh?

Well my D600 with very similar specs runs it great. what you can try is editing the config to memsize= 64

That should help clear it up

Edit: ops didnt notice the date... oh wells thats my advice to others anways

The game is terribly lagging on an Netbook with N450 (1,6 GHz). What can I do to boost the performance?

a 1.6Ghz atom is about half the speed of a Pentium m so thats around 800MHz.

But thats Pentium M, In Comparison to even a Pentium 4 a Atom CPU is fairly weak as well as your only running single channel memory.

To be honest dude you might be outta luck, you can up the memside in the config like i mentioned above but really netbooks are badly underpowered and Dosbox is emulation at heart
Thx for your answer. Than good to know, because 3D games like MDK are excellent... I'll try to avoid dosbox-emulated games from now on.
I have Intel i3-2120 @3,3GHZ and 8GB RAM and it laggs so much that its nearly unplayable.
