      Hi there,

      I have some issues with lr-mame2003 not running NBA Jam, Mortal Kombat, Bubble Bobble 2 etc.

      I have a Rasp Pi 3 running Retro Pi 4.1. I read through the wiki and various threads on overclocking and then based on a recommendation in another post I manually entered the following settings in my \boot\config.txt.

      arm_freq=1350
      core_freq=500
      over_voltage=4

      I then power cycled the Pi.

      Unfortunately it doesnt appear to have helped any of the slow games mentioned above? they still suffer the same slow gameplay and stuttering sound.

      Any ideas?

        @gnome73 I'm running NBA Jam and Mortal Combat in mame4all-pi and Bubble Bobble 2 in AdvanceMAME 0.94 without significant sound or speed issues on my pi2.

          increase ram speed? mk2 and 3 have a known sound bug. mk1 runs fine for me.

            I read in some other threads that people have not had much success with RAM speed? Is there a proven and working setting for RAM speed if so what is it?
