I am setting up a MS PAC cab. Wife is being kinda anal about this one. ::) If I could just figure out how to make it boot right to Ms PAC . I would be so happy. all she wants is Ms PAC I allmost tossed in a console but we want a vertical screen I have never used Mame for dos. Never used dos before eather. can I tell Mame to load MS PAC on start up? can I tell Mame 32 to load Ms PAC on start up? I do not care if the GUI shows up at first and then boots up MS PAC. |

If it is to play only ms pac man. The dos is the simpliest i think. Install dos on your machine Install your Dmame |

On window, you can say MAME32 or MAME to start on Pacman too. There is lot of solution , one can be to do .BAT too. I suppose your mame is in C:\mame and the .Exe is called mame32.exe Open the nodepad. Type : C: cd \ cd mame mame32.exe roms\pacman.zip -skip_disclaimer -skip_gameinfo Save the file and give the name : Pacman.bat (for instance) With windows explorer, select the file , right click, select copy. Then right click on the "start" menu of windows. Select "Explore" , find the folder called "Start up". Right click, select "Paste". Now when you boot, you will be directly on Pacman. |

You should consider using Vantage instead of Mame. You could fit Vantage and the mspacman rom on a bootable floppy disk; so you wouldn't even need a hard drive. The only tricky part would be setting up your sound card. If you want to try it out, I can email you a bootable floppy image (without the rom of course) that's set up to run Vantage immediatley on boot up; just let me know what kind of soundcard you'll be using. |
