Hi All,
OK , this is a continuation of this thread :
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,30681.0.htmlbut as it covers a few topics I thought I'd open a new thread . Here goes . I've got the following .
1) One upright arcade machine with JAMMA harness and ....
2) One Hantarex MTC9110 Monitor
and I've just bought the following ..
3) One J-PAC
4) One ArcadeVGA card
5) One 500Mhz(P3) /128M RAM PC .
6) and 2 new attitional buttons for player 1 and 2 (now 5 in total)
I know I'm asking a lot here but what's the best way to set this up ? Starting with Win98SE . I'm going to do a clean install . I presume all I need is the OS together with DirectX9.0 . Should I load anything else ?
Once the OS is up and running I'm going to load Mame .35 and the latest version of MameWah . Is there anything special I need to know for my setup ? I've always used Mame32 so any help would be appreciated .
At present I've got to physically turn my monitor around if I want to play horizontally oriented games . What's going to happen now once I install Mame ?
If I leave my monitor in vertical mode and I play a horizontal game I presume it'll be "squashed up" a bit .
Sorry for all the questions but I just wanted to be prepared for any problems during the convertion . I'd appreciate any info/advice .
