Question about Operating System
« on: December 22, 2012, 01:34:56 pm »
do groovymame and Crt_emuldrive works under windows 7 x64 or Windows XP x64 ?

If they do not work under windows 7 then...is better windows XP x64 or windows XP x32 ?  (in the second chance...less memory 'cause windows xp x32 can address max 1 or 2 gb)

thanks ;-)

XP32 can address 3.25gb RAM. XP64 works fine. Vista/7/8 dont work with custom modelines and 15khz.

Hi limmer,

CRT_Emudriver is only for XP, so you have versions for both XP 32 and x64. GroovyMAME works under Windows 7, but with important restrictions.
Important note: posts reporting GM issues without a log will be IGNORED.
Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead of pasting it.

I've changed the Topic name, you were right, sorry!

Anyway it seems that both crt_emuldrive and groovymame works well under Windows XP x64 so it's probably that i'll choose it for my mamecab, thanks!
