=20 I'm trying to get Dave Wallace's virtual H8 to work on my Windows = (Media Center) computer. I'm using version 1.4.

bingo. that got it working on my old = Pentium III=20 (Tau of 4). I may have to rebuild the code with higher Tau to get = it to=20 work on my Pentium D (2.8 Ghz) system - even 5 doesn't = work...

On the menu, select Configure>H8 Options. The dialog = pop-up=20 allows you to set "value of tau". Start with 5:1 and see if the = PAM8=20 code behaves better. If it does, try lower ratios until it = breaks again=20 and then go up one step. (I'm currently using 3:1 on my XP Pro = platform=20 -- 2:1 worked fine on a slower CPU running NT, so Microsoft "improved" = things.)
