*'''Problem:''' Enabling the "Half-Pixel Offset" hack to realign the textures results in flickering white lines along the top and left borders of the screen.
*'''Solution:''' Adjust the Zoom in the main emulation settings to 102.80%, and set the screen display to "Fit to Screen/Window".

You can then adjust the display in-game in the options menu to your liking (4:3 or 16:9).
