| Why is my new computer running Mame games slow?? |

Check the cmos. You may have the video card set as PCI, not AGP. I had that problem. If there are any chipset settings in the CMOS, clock them as fast as you can. The motherboard may be wanting to use it's own video as primary. |

Windows XP will run significantly better with more than 128meg onboard. I personally consider 256 an absolute min on XP machines. And Asteroids did run poorly for a release or two a while back. Seemed like .78. |

I think Zaphod nailed it. Windows XP alone requires at least 256mb RAM. Ram is so cheap these days there's really no reason NOT to have at least 512mb. |
