My main machine uses windows 7 but I occasionally use a stripped back XP for dedicated builds.

1x Dreamcast
1x CPSIII
3x Linux/MAME

One of the Linux/MAME cabs is a recent rebuild.  Was previously running a PS2 for a bunch of Japanese shooters that were too expensive to buy PCBs for, but they're all in MAME these days.

I used widows 7 on my first 2 cabs and it work perfectly but i recently upgraded my bartop hardware and decided to try windows 10 on it to have access to more up to date drivers and thing like directX 12 and vulkan but... i regret it a couple of my go to emulator have been having problems with the update its been a couple of weeks and i have found workaround and replacements but I recommend windows 7 64bit its stable and compatible.

Ps. English is my second language so sorry for any misspelling or bad grammar

Was on XP 64, but switched to Win 7 64 bit since the latest GroovyMAME CRTemu driver supported it.

You don't need a desktop environment / window manager at all for Linux.  I wrote a thread on it a while back:
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,135914.0.html

The "lightweight" nature of Linux distros people talk about typically comes down to the desktop they choose.  All current Linux distros run Xorg with something else on top (XFCE, for example).

XFCE is certainly lighter weight than Unity, GNOME or KDE.  But running nothing is the most lightweight desktop of all.

Until it all goes tits up and you have to get a book/friend/professional to help fix it.  If you are going this route I would have several backups on hand.  I'm not saying you are not a guru on Linux, but I would look at the learning curve on the free OS versus free Windows with PC that the rest of the (typical user) world today use.

There is no reason to resort to Linux on a x86 machine, otherwise we would all be doing so.   ::)

I have seen the thread and i want to try it on a spare pc, but i just chose the easy way.
Simply installing Mint, the emulators and a frontend.
Anyone who can install windows, can install linux like this.
I am no linux expert, but i like it for it's stability and speed, and of course, it's free.

Come full circle, running Windows XP again.  My cab started with that, then I used GroovyArcade for a few years (Linux), and decided I wanted to run stuff like hbmame, and some other apps and emulators.  I do miss the fast boot of GroovyArcade though, I had it down to just a few seconds.

No real surprise that Windows is the most popular OS but I would be interested to know the breakdown of which flavours of Windows; WinXP, Vista(!) Win7, Win10 etc are the most popular.

Still using XP32 on my arcade coffee table but have wondered if upgrading to a 64-bit OS would bring any worthwhile advantages?

Will definitely replace the HDD with SSD at some point as I have one ready to go in alongside an Intel Core 2 Quad 3.0GHz Q9650 to replace the existing Intel Core 2 Duo 2.33GHz E6550 but wondered whether the increase in performance might not be worth the extra heat etc.

I'll start another thread on that subject when the time comes...

Years ago I went from XP32 to XP64 on the same PC in my driving cab.
It gave the games which were already playable, but with sound skips and occasional slowdowns just enough of a boost to eliminate those issues.
Of course it just made a new batch of games that weren't playable before almost run well enough to play.
So I gained games, but the goal posts always keep moving.

In other words it's definitely an improvement, but doesn't make a bunch of formerly unplayable games run at full speed.

Was using windows 10. Going to try GrovvyArcade. If I can update attractmode and groovymame to the latest versions, I'll stick with that. Im tired of playing with hiding windows and drivers etc. I'll shortly find out if groovyarcade will be an easy 15khz and LCD solution.
