Decent Game Boy Emulator?

I've been using BGB for some time, and don't really have any problems with the actual emulation on it (except the sound isn't *great*, but then again this is GB sound we're talking about!), but my crappy Celeron 366 (overclocked to an *amazing* 412.5MHz) is way too slow to run any games in fullscreen in it (it doesn't use DirectDraw or anything), even just at 2x screen size.

I know you're thinking my PC may be too ancient for anything like that, but believe me - I can play Mega-CD, Neo-Geo, and even big CPS2 games like Marvel Vs. Capcom at full speed, and I have a GeForce 2 Ti so fullscreen stretching and triple buffering and whatnot isn't a problem.

I'm using Win2k, so DOS emulators are out of the question. And NO$GMB may be a good debugger/assembler, but it's a useless emulator compared to others.

So, any recommendations?

Uhh, the site's http://boycottadvance.emuunlim.com, and IIRC that's GBA-only emulator, unless it's actually been updated recently. Plus I already have it!

Visual Boy Advance (link) is perfect..... Does the job for me.

Hmm, I've heard good things about that, and it looks good. I have to try it out, though I've tried GBA emulation on it before and that was pretty choppy on my PC.
