Yes, i think i can get that. I have windows 98 disk here, but i cant use it on the computer i have because i dont have the drivers disks, windows me auto installs all the drivers. I can install 98 on another drive, then copy that file, then plug in the other drive and copy it over. I will let you know if it works. |

Ps - does that folder exist in XP? my everyday computer uses xp but i dont see it. |

This folder exists in all windows version. May be it is simply the fact that your display settings are configured to hide the folder. Open Windows Explorer, go in the tools menu , then "folder options". then "view" tab , here there is a list of option and you should have an option like "Hidden Files and Folders". Choose : "show hidden files and folders". |

Youki, I ended up upgrading the computer to windows 2000 Pro, after the upgrade, the program shutdown with the pressing of escape! So, it seems to be working perfectly now. I tried to modify the registry so that windows would shell to Atomic, but it kept giving me errors (i have made other programs direct boot before, but atomic would not boot). But it still works fine as it is in the startup folder. I even changed the sound effects so that qbert says Hello, i am turned on and bye bye! Thanks to everyone that helped, i put the samples in and now qbert talks! Youki, you really went the extra mile answering all my questions, you have been the most helpful of any person on this board. I am going to be ebaying the working parts of my qbert , i would like to send you some of the proceeds, do you have a paypal address i can donate to? I am not a rich man, but i am happy to give you some of what i get from the parts sale. Let me know. I am going to be setting up another computer for a regular mame machine, this one will have thousands of roms. I think i can do it now, Atomic seemed really daunting to set up to me before, but now it seems pretty straightforward. thanks again for all the help, My Qbert will live again (i just have to move all the PC electronics into the cabinet, but i know how to do all that. |
