--- Quote from: techontap on November 17, 2011, 03:36:27 pm ---Thanks again. Yes, I'm a Gigabyte fan myself, so I may splurge the extra few bucks for an AMD northbridge. Someone on another forum told me that the ROM's change and if I upgrade MAME, I'm potentially forcing myself to do a lot of reconfiguring and ROM upgrading... ? --- End quote --- no. However, roms can sometimes be re-dumped for whatever reason and sometimes support for the old bad roms will be dropped. Normally thats due to a bad dump or encryption on the original arcade board that prevents dumping the full contents of the game. I would personally leave that up to the arcade owner to deal with that. |
