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

<< < (62/64) > >>

ponso:
I probably have to backtrack the comments but I tried version L today and it got stuck at "press to continue" before fdisk. 

I'm using PIII 450.

I'll check out the .bat files and try again tomorrow.

MAME-XP is a nice alternative if DOS is getting you down :) While I prefer to use it with a P4, I bet that P3 could run it.

bryan95502:
Any information on MAME-XP? Google came up with nothing..

I have just installed XP and stopped all services not needed, blacked out the welcome and shut down screens and instantsheller'd a front end


MAME-XP this same idea or better?

I actually abandoned the "DOS boot CD" and started using "MAME-XP" exclusively :)

These days Pentium 4 computers can be had for $50 and less (sometimes much less), I see no reason to mess around with the old rigs anymore. I messed with those old rigs for years (I am a PC repair guy) and I am happy to see them all go to He... Well anyway I digress :)

So I like a Pentium 4 and MAME-XP :)

Also the "DOS boot CD" is "open source", you can download it, edit DOS.BAT and change the disk to your liking. Then release a new version that is all yours! From Fraggal, to me, to you :)

I am happy to pass the torch and never again touch a computer older than a Pentium 4 :)

Have fun!
Craig

p.s. Though I've abandoned it, I'll still try to help anyone who is using it :) So feel free to ask questions if you get stumped.
 

GameTech:
Where can I get my hands on the MAME-XP?  I simply don't have the time to make my own version of XP, even though I own the original disc (Win2K, XP and 7).

I'm looking for a strip down version of XP... so it loads fast and more.. help?

Thanks!!
