JVL Vortex 1GB or not?

[Chris-socal]

Hello
New member here so forgive me if I created new topic incorrectly. I have been a visitor of the site for years but until today could not get my account verified. John got me all fixed up so Im finally official.
Im more active in the slot machine world (NLG forum) but I occasionally work on arcade or touch screen counter top machines.

I recently acquired a JVL Vortex and upgraded to Itouch 11, right away I noticed I basically have the same number of games as 10. I read the topic below and gathered that if I created a 1GB drive I would have more games.

If I am allowed to ask, Is the best approach to get a CD and create a 1GB CF? Or is there a disc image readily available to create a 1GB drive? Moderator, please strike if necessary and/or modify phrasing. I have read a lot on this but honestly still a bit confused about the best approach. I have older versions of Windows and I am computer literate.

Thanks again for all the help you have given when I wasn’t able to express it.

Chris

Mods, ban him.

 

Jokes aside, i will look to see if i still have a itouch 11 image.

Edit: Seems i only have the 512mb version image. I guess i never installed onto a 1gb. Looks like your gonna have to use a usb externally powered cd drive and burn the iso onto a cd-r.

Interesting timing. I was chatting with someone who works on these last night and he got me the files. He installed it on a 1GB drive and counted games. He said you get 13 more games by using a 1GB CF.
Im going to give it a shot.

Thanks for the reply….and the warm boot. LOL
