Boot CD installs DOS, Vantage, Raine, MAME (1 of 7 versions) and Game Launcher

Craig,
Ok, thanks for trying to figure out this problem... I think this may be the problem with me too.. I was using higher MAME version..
I will try a lower version again, redo it all and report back soon.
Peace

Not sure if its too relevant now, but this cool boot disk has been running flawlessly on my arcade for a few years now so just wanted to say thanks Spystyle for creating this. For folks still wanting to use this, it takes some setting up, but once you have it running it will run forever without crashing. I currently have my Cocktail Chest hybrid running with MAME 0.79, ZSNES, MESS 0.89 (Megadrive, Vectrex, Atari 2600, NES), Magic Engine (PC Engine) and Meka (Sega Master System).
BTW, Game Launcher only works with Mame 0.79 at the latest.
Also, I found on some motherboards I was testing in my cab, I had the same DPMI failure. The way I solved it was to download CSDPMI off the net and copy it into the DOS and MAME folders. It basically overwrites the one in there. Then it works. I don't know why the one on the boot disk doesn't work on some machines, but the copy over method worked for me.
I'm back here as I want to try MAME-XP on a laptop (onboard audio not compatible with DOS) I intend to make a bartop arcade out of it :)

I think I'm going to give this a shot. I have an old PII to try. Fingers crossed.

OK good luck :)
