sound lags behind screen action

[Derek]

I am still using MAME32b-036, as everytime I try a newer version, fewer of the old games work, Junior Pac - Man works on few versions. I posted about that earlier. Though I stil don't get why a working ROM would not work on subsequent versions of MAME. Why make changes to MAME that result in complete games starting to not work?...Anyway, now this version has started to have the sound lag almost two seconds behind the video. It makes all of the Pac/Ms. Pac/ and their variations hard to play as you often use the sound and not the blinking of the ghosts to decide whether to chomp one more or not risk it. Not all the games do it, which makes me think it will be really hard to figure out why some of them have the sound lag behind the video. Obviously they didn't do this before or I would have asked about it. I have changed no settings within MAME, same computer, same version of MAME, same collection of ROM's.

 

Thanks in advanvce for any productive suggestions!

In mine, there's an option for audio latency.
