Could you try this and report if that fixes your problem:

1. Locate "mGalaxy.exe". Right-click on the executable and select “Properties”.

2. Navigate to the "Compatibility" tab and check the option “Disable fullscreen optimization”. Press Apply to save changes and exit.

Sorry, the info I gave you was for Windows 10! Sorry for my mistake!

I can read here and there that you have to download this update:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36805 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36805)


From there, it should be all right!

You mean that the solution provided didn't work ?
If so, how can you tell that the interface is slow ?
Wait!! The message you receive is when launching mGalaxy itself...or an emulator?

Concerning the speed of the interface, that is more A GPU concern than a CPU one. What is your GPU (graphic card)?

Hi!! yes the solution provided worked perfectly now i can open the mgalaxy perfectly !! but he is slow very slow !! then I asked, it will be because the cpu is very weak !! that's what I asked !!!

that the interface speed is slow !! I do not have a video card, only the one integrated into the motherboard itself. then I will pass her model ok .. it is necessary to have a graphics card !

Let's say it's MUCH better Elvis! (especially since your CPU - and therefore I imagine your motherboard and chipset - are more than 10 years old)
3D themes will need a bit more power (though I guess you don't have a problem with the basic theme or Presenter I & II)

If I were you, I would buy a graphic card, even the cheapest one...you should see an instant difference!

first of all I want to thank you admin and creator of mgalxy!! good as I avia said that when you put a video card I would say how it turned. I'm a little sad about the fact that I got a 2gb video card and nothing has changed!! because it is an ati radeon X1550 series.. would have any idea!! follows attachment!!

Unfortunately, the card you are talking about is not the fastest ;)
https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Radeon+X1550&id=613 (https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Radeon+X1550&id=613)
but I guess your motherboard is still with an AGP graphics bus and you didn't have much choice!?

Anyway I'm going to give you a 'hidden' procedure to display your frame rate (FPS).
Once you have activated this display, you will be able to see how many FPS you have WITH and WITHOUT your graphic card.
If the numbers are almost the same, there is still a problem :(
From then, you will see the FPS displayed on the right top corner.
Check the speed of the Base theme and the 3D Themes WITH and WITHOUT your graphic card.
Report your finds here

PS: for your info, here are the typical FPS on a i3 CPU with an entry level GTX 750 at 1920x1080px resolution:
Base, Presenter, Presenter II, Stripe: 450 FPS
MyVintageRoom, MySnes, MyArcadeRoom: 100 FPS

I tested with the basic themes and not much changed the assessment !! but anyway I will do the tests you said and soon I will tell you how it will be ok .. thanks a lot for now !!! 👊👊👍👍👍
