Ive created a tile-screen with floor and walls and a sprite moving around...the problem is that the game slows down sometimes and it?s drawing "late" and lags... I don?t have much code or anything..can it be the emulator(BoycottAdvance)?

Vboy is the most accurate, try that.
The 1st ever thing I got running on gba 2 days after deciding to learn the system was a demo of Paradroid (old c64 game). That used to slow down. Basically because I didn't understand the gba fully (it'd only been 2 days since I even saw any docs or anything) I was doing things all the wrong way. Took me another day of REALLY reading the docs instead of scanning through to work out that it was a whole lot easier than I had made it (too used to other consoles/computers) and it than only took about 1/16 of a frame to do everything it was doing in 1+ frames b4.

If you have a slow computer an emulator might not emulate it fast enough, I have a 33mhz pc and it isnt fast enough for the emulator, some fames even arent 100% with 9 frames skipped.

True (I've got amd 1900+ so don't notice hehe) but with vboy you'll see the fps anyway so can tell if it's not running full speed.
