You can run regular Windows at 640x480 on an arcade monitor with ArcadeVGA -- it just isn't pretty.
Cheers.

What i do is use mame32 with ultrastyle, no probs at all this frontend is made for mame32 & you never need the keyboard & its a snap to setup
thanks

Thanks guys - one final stupid question before i make a start. Mame32 is already on my machine which has an ati radeon card in it, i use mame on my standard monitor. When i insert the arcadevga and hook this machine up to the cabinet are there any settings in mame 32 i will have to change so that the games run full screen rather than with borders as per windows with standard monitor.
Sorry if this is a dumb question but i figure its better to get as much right first time as i dont want to have to mess about too much once the pc is in the cab

There are no dumb questions (well not many), but you could investigate yourself a little bit. Before I get a product I try to find as much info on it (on the internet) as possible. For you the golden place would be www.ultimarc.com. Has lots of info.
Read the Information,FAQ's, instructions, monitor FAQ (all under the ArcadeVHA header) and before you know it, you're an expert :)
There, you will read f.i. that you will need to remove the old ATI drivers COMPLETELY, before installing the arcadeVGA.
(I don't even own an ArcadeVGA (yet) and still know ;) ;)
