| Best current OS/FE for a cab |
| << < (2/2) |
| Dexter:
I will be doing a build on a virtual maching here at work then bringing it home. Seeing as though I'm starting from scratch I can install any OS to start with without a time penalty either way. Once I'm done I won't be touching the cabs OS for a long time, so I'm leaning towards XP to ensure long term compatibility from a hardware perspective as well. |

If it is an install from scratch go for XP. But as i said i wouldn't recommend Tiny version. Sometimes for some emulators or software some DLL, OCX, etc.. are Missing. It is not a big deal because often you have just to find the dll on the net and copy it in the system folder. But if your cab is not connected to the net , it is not very practical. i have lot of user of my Front end that had this kind of problems using some emulators with Tiny XP. but if it is just for mame. It should be ok. |

Will do, XP it is, ta. Was looking into AtomicFE for the cab. I started out with Arcadeos on my original cab way back when! |
