Easiest frontend
itismejs:
I have a P2 266hmz puter. I have a jpac and need to finish wiring the JAMMA plus buttons. (how is DOS going to detect the JPAC...it will look like regularkeyboard inputs right?)The computer has a small harddrive and is running windows 95. When I turn on the computer I want it to automatically open MAME/frontend. I need to know what the best software it use and exaclly how to install it. Also if possible I want to be able to play NES and maybe GBA games.

I dont think that system will play GBA roms.. My p3 500mhz wont play GBA game fullscreen at full speed.

I would get Win95 to boot into DOS...IIRC you edit msdos.sys and set BootGUI=0 (or use TweakUI from within Windows).
Then use an old version of DOS MAME (0.36final similar), and ArcadeOS. For NES you can use Nesticle which I believe can be launched from ArcadeOS also.
As walls83 said, forget GBA...
