Yeah, either that or whenever I go into the start screen to view mission objectives.

Not sure.

Are you using the 12mb rom, or the overdump?

Yes, it is. The [o1] is Cowering's code for "Overdump 1". The four extra meg's are corrupted duplicates of part of the previous data. Look for the rom that says "(U) [!]" at the end.

Overdump is when a rom size is wrong and you end up with a portion at the end of the rom full of 0's. In Goldeneye's case the rom is 12meg and the overdump has 4meg of 0's at the end which can cause problems. Download a fresh 12meg rom or use a hex editor to fix you rom (Truncate the file to 12meg). There are rom fixers out there never used one but they should automate the process for you.

Make sure you use goodn64 to check your rom

If you're using the good version then I can't help you. If you have the overdump read here for a simple solution that doesn't involve hex editing.

Edit: Hmmm. After posting this I decided to play the game for a while and it eventually froze. I'm definitely using a good dump. Though the problem is much, MUCH less frequent than it was in UltraXLE, it does appear to still be there. Perhaps tweaking the settings might help, but seeing how it's something that seems to happen almost at random I wonder how one would test it.
