Problem with visuals in SSF

[tdot]

Hi,



I have been using SSF for some time now. However, recently the emulator has not been working correctly. Every time I load it up, all I get is the audio of the game booting up, and the screen remains blank.I can hear the game sound in the background but get no picture. When switching from windowed to fullscreen I can see the game a split second before it goes black again. It clearly runs the game just the screen won't show the game.



I have tried numerous things, I have redownloaded SSF numerous times, be it the latest version or an older one, and still I get this problem. I have DirectX 11 installed, and still it isn't working. Please somebody help, I really love the Saturn and would hate to no longer be able to play its wonderful game library on my computer.



My specifications:



Graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon 5650



Processor is Intel(R) Core i5 CPU M430 @ 2.27GHz (4 CPUS),



I am using Windows 7 64bit version

Please excuse the late response.

Can you take some screen caps of your current SSF config? (one pic for each page) Also: which game(s) are you trying to run, and which version of SSF are you using?

Two things worth trying:

1. I know you already have DX11, but try running this installer -> www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35

2. I see you're using a laptop. Try right clicking SSF.exe and under "Run with graphics processor," choose your Radeon card.
