Vista VS front end?
lettuce:
Vista doesnt work with mame based stuff that well at all really, if you want to use mame 64 best bet is to get XP 64

I've tried MaLa and Maximus
and the both work, but with little gliches I'd like to avoid on a cab
I know, I know use XP ;)
But I'd like to take advantage of vista64 and mame 64

Yes I vote for XP too
But do tell what 'glitches' there are (if any) with MaLa & Vista32 so I can fix them ;)
Possibly in a new thread in the MaLa Forum section.
I finally have a Vista32 Box in the MaLa dev lab to test stuff ;)

vista x64 worked fine for me with mala. however, vista x64 and soft15khz are no go. that alone made me go back to xp x64 so i don't have to settle for an arcadevga card and suffer for non mame emulation.
protokatie:
To answer the origonal post. AtomicFe works perfectly with VISTA 32. I dont know about vista 64 tho...
If you were to go with vista, I would say vista32 on a dualcore (to help speed up MAME). Otherwise I would really just say use TinyXP.

btw, what does 'not playing nice' mean? flashing background screens ect?
just curious? (I've used xp64, and vista 64 for like a week before I upgraded back to xp... but this was before a few essentials wheren't ported to a 64 bit platform)
