winuae crashes at fullscreen on vista
i am using the latest winuae under windows vista, it works using all different settings under windowed mode at maximum resolution 720x568 but as soon as i turn it to fullscreen and start the emulation windows comes up with a blue screen and crashes and reboots, does anyone know how to fix this, it is an annoying running at half screen to play games
 any help would be great Peter. |

Blue screen = broken driver or broken hardware.
What display card? Do you have latest driver? |

You can d/l the latest OEM drivers from Intel's website and see if they work better for WinUAE or not.
You didn't specify which flavor of Vista so here are both links: Vista 64-Bit Vista 32-bit |

Glad to hear that, I always like to keep the device drivers updated as much as possible, many times the updates have plenty of bug fixes and also some performance tweaks
 I have seen on occasion that a particular system configuration will cause some issues with the latest drivers, especially graphics drivers, so in this case I work myself backwards in versions until I find a fix or something I can live with until the next version.... |
