MAME vs MAME Pentium Pro Optimized
« on: April 19, 2006, 03:59:24 pm »
Pardon what I suspect is a really dumb question, but I'm wondering which version of MAME I ought to use.  Running an Athlon 2200+ with 512 MB, Windows XP, SP2.  Does "Pentium Pro" really refer exclusively to Pentium machines, or just to Pentium-class machines?

TIA

Its specifically for the Pentium Pro CPU.  It will work, but may not be optimized great for you.  you can get a AthlonXP or athlon64 optimized build here.
