Hey, Peale... I don't suppose you've tried DOSCab Jukebox on that 486, have you? I'm dying to know how low of a machine it'll run on... --Chris |

Sorry, Chris, I haven't played with your program @ all, I'm afraid. But on your request I will. |

--- Quote from: MrBond on July 25, 2004, 01:24:16 pm ---Not exactly what you are talking about, but similar, just for general knowledge. Here is a bootable iso image that you can burn to a cd and place in your cd-rom drive during bootup. It will install Mame and ArcadeOS to your specifications. Obviously it won't work in ALL situations, but I had luck with it when I tried it a long time ago (I have since gone winxp with 3-d arcade as a frontend). It formats your harddrive too if you need that done. (basically all the DOS gruntwork is done for you) http://members.cox.net/mame1/download.htm --- End quote --- Thank you very much! I will be trying that as soon as all my HD's come in. I'm wondering tho, what the minimum specs would be to run it? Do you 'spose a couple of my Pent 1 & 2's will handle it? Or even my old 486? Or should I stick too my original Vantage & ArcadeOS plan that JoyM is so kindly helping me with on all of them? :) |
| EndTwist:
IMHO, stick with VAntAGE for the 486 and P1, the P2 can handle MAME 0.36 if its ~300mhz. Anything less, stick to VAntAGE. |

They are all 233mhz and less. I will try Fraggal's Mame Installer CD when and if I get some "newer" ;) models. |
