Any Mame Game Stuttering During Launch (Video Attached)

[gameguy25]

Hello Expert Hyperspin Community,

     Been having this crazy issue with stuttering during launch of Mame games from the Hyperspin menu. My setup has always done this and I cant figure out why. I'm attaching a video so the stuttering sounds can be heard during the launch of Robotron for example. System specs are very good, core i5 3.5ghz cpu, 16gigs ram, Geforce 1050 Ti video card, ssd c drive and secondary 5tb drive for arcade setup and so on. Everything I throw at this system runs excellent so have no idea why Mame games or any games for that matter would stutter only on the loading / start of the game. There's no errors in the RL log and I'm just lost as to why this is happening. I have the fade turned on in RL as you can see in the video but crazy thing is the stuttering is there even when fade is turned off, anyone have any recommendations?

Also, using windows 7, with windows defender disabled. I've read some issues with windows defender needing exceptions for hyperspin and hyperhq exe's so figured I would disable it completely to avoid any issues. No antivirus installed at all on this system.

If there's any additional info I can provide let me know I'm pulling my hair out over this one.

Easy now... I wasn't aware anyone was being paid to support MAME, or any other software for that matter.

Which drive do you have HyperSpin installed on? Is it to the same drive as your emulators/ROMs?

What version of MAME are you using?

Stuttering has nothing or very little to do with HS/RL... are you seeing this on every single game? Does it stutter at all while playing?
