From what I have read compiling on win7 and moving the file over is the way to go if you have problems.  Weird that some people don't.. maybe everyone has bitten the bullet and moved to 7.  That switch is inevitable anyway. So far I haven't had problems with my 145u5 mame64.  Everything is smooth, and Xevious works again finally.  I was lazy and stuck with some version that had one of my Fav games borked.  Good luck!

It worked!  Thankfully, no problems as yet from the games I have tested - now I can get on and finish off my cab at last.  :cheers: I didn't need any updates I just patched with hi_0145 and that did the trick in the end.

To be honest, I would have used Win 7 myself but this machine was from an old bartop build and the HD was only 76gb after format, so I wanted to keep the install pretty small, so chose Xp.  Next build I'm doing will deffo use Win 7 though :)
