It works with your dell?  I put my ArcadeVGA in mine and all i got was only the windows xp boot screen; then the monitor says unacceptable analog output.  I assumed it locked out non-dell video cards and thus it would only display the boot screen and the same will happen wit hthe WG9800.

Well then, that gives me hope with my current box, haha.  Im going to have to play with it to see if i can get it working and avoid spending the extra $400.  Curious if anyone else know about how to remedy this?  The dell is running windows xp64 if that helps.

Thanks for the responses!

There's some important details to installing ArcadeVGA so it works right.

IIRC, you need to remove any Nvidia display drivers (or is it ATI? can't recall) from the PC before attempting to install the ArcadeVGA.  I ran into this and downloaded the driver cleanup tool, and everything worked great.

Anyway, take a closer look at the install directions on the CD.  I'm at work right now so I can't look it up, but you should have little trouble getting this working with the instructions that Andy provides.  :)
WhereEaglesDare:
It should work fine on a Dell, unless your dell is a P2 then maybe you might have an issue.
ShoLouie:
Just thought of this but would the fact im not using PAL monitor have something to do with it?  Could there be a jumper or something on the card that would switch it to NTSC?

I don't know anything about ArcadeVGA, but this might fit your needs....

I bought one at someone else's suggestion.  I just loaded my MAME up, stuck it in the cab and really haven't touched it since.
