Desktop Cabinet links?

[Tritoch84]

I'm turning my old P120 4GIG 24M of RAM computer into a desktop cabinet running DOS with Vantage and ArcadeOS. But I have only seen a picture of one, and can't find links to any projects like this.  It would only run mspacman and galaga type games, so no dissing the old thing.

(I used to run Callus with every CPS1 game with no slowdown in DOS!)

My only worry is, that old school SCSI Drive sure is loud and gets blazing hot.

what exactly are you trying to find out?  cabinet plans? setups?  i have done almost the exact same thing and can offer some insight if thats any help.  By the way the old school vantage cabs rock--boot up in seconds, easy to navigate and plays the games just fine.

Thanks for the reply! Sorry for being vauge, I was just looking for more examples/plans.

This is a present for my parents (avid old school gamers).

I only used a PS2 to USB hack (which was easy) for my  cabinet, but now it seems I'll be learning how to hack a keyboard.

(goes to cram)

Here's mine:

I posted the plans inside the thread "any interest in original cab dimensions" in the main forum (its on page 5 of the thread)

here's also see a link to Oscar's bartop project which HEAVILY inspired mine   (i..e I copied his and modified it)

that should get you started....  And feel free to call it a mini-cade--i won't take offense I do so love that name...
