Advice on a possible upgrade
MnMCaputo:
onboard video should be enough being that mame is done through processor power, not video card power

That's right, I had forgot.

Actually it looks like I can go up too 512mb of ram. So I'm looking at either a 256mb stick for apporx. $35.00 or 2 for $70. 256 with XP as the O/S should be enough shouldn't it?
MnMCaputo:
256 is enough when you disable a lot of the processes that run in the background of xp that you dont need, as well, as well as when you set it for performance, not appearance
IG-88:
OK. What processes do you recommend shutting off by the way? Is that hard to do? Is that something I can do from msconfig?
