I commonly now get GFX FIFO errors, I can "OK" a large number of error dialogs and kinda get back to the game, normally with another window or taskbar over the top, if I alt-tab back to the game the screen flashes between game and black.

I have also now seeing screen tearing which I didn't see before and I take it is related to other comments here lately.
Some games don't like vsync, especially F-Zero GX, is vsync disabled in the emu options?
Are you using the Aero theme or the basic theme (i.e., WDM disabled)?
This thread has gone way off my initial topic. Perhaps it is prudent to make a new one? Smile

Yes vsync is disabled.
Aero windows theme

Looks like I might have killed off the GFX FIFO errors by unchecking 'Use Panic Handlers' but assume they are still happening just not hassling me about it.

You should disable Dual Core in the settings, F-Zero GX doesn't work well with it.
I think there is confusion here, GFX is the message error (I assume meaning graphics), not the game I am playing at the time. It has happened on a couple different games but the one I remember is Wii Fit Plus.
