Sounds like this is one of two things:

1) Check the bus speed setup in the XCMOS on the 25Mhz motherboard - it may
be a timing problem; or,

2) Make sure the BOCA SVGA driver is loaded on the 25Mhz - the games you are
running sometimes need the drivers, depending on the ROM BIOS.

				Hope this helps!
