| 'Mameing' Vista |
| << < (3/5) > >> |
| Jdurg:
1): The OP asked if Vista could be used for MAME and I responded by stating that the only reason to use Vista for MAME is for the 64-bit support and that if he had XP-64 then use that as opposed to Vista. 2): You jumped in and said "No, many appliction do not run in 64. I have been using all versions of Vista since launch, 64 is the buggiest, and worst for mame." 3): I responded and said that you were wrong (which you are, as numbers don't lie) and said that in this hobby (Arcade cabinet building) that I haven't yet come across a 64-bit issue. (Which I haven't yet). 4): You proceed to argue that your console emulators have not run in 64-bit even though the OP NEVER mentioned anything but MAME. 5): I then stated that the original poster asked about MAME and that your argument was not valid. Still, since the thread had gone off-course, I answered your questions about console emulators by stating all of those that I run which work fine. There is no problem not liking Vista, or any 64-bit applications, and not wanting to use it. It's when you tell someone something that is completely not true and only clarify yourself once you have been pointed out as wrong that I have an issue with. :cheers: |

I've also tried numerous front ends without any problems at all, so it looks like the issue is on your system. BTW, here's the thread that undeniably proves that 64-bit OS is better than a 32-bit OS. --- End quote --- Hows light gun support now? |
| Jdurg:
I don't use lightguns as I'm not a big fan of those games, but I've read numerous threads here stating that lightgun support is now present in 64 bit systems. |

calm down guys, geeeez. personally, i'd stay as far away from vista as possible. i'm running it on two of my PCs here at the house, but i'd never consider it for my arcade cabinets...go with xp, it doesnt suck. |
| Jdurg:
If you've got XP-64, go for it. The gains you get from 64-bit Operating Systems is well worth it. |
