No problem at all - if you aren't worried about accidentally whacking the Trackball during a Tempest game or the spinner in Golden Tee. Or if it was convenient you could use the SPDT (??) Switch like oscar show to select them or unplug one when not in use.
I was only trying to point out that if you wanted to use XP, and wanted to play dual trackball games, you could use the correct version of Analog Plus for those games only, and an older MAME for all the other games.

Old thread, but finally got around to doing some troubleshooting with this pc. Quick recap (and changes made):
Pentium III 600 mhz, 512 MB RAM
Mame .75
Mamewah frontend
GeForce 4 MX 4000 card with 64MB RAM
Win98SE
When I run Mamewah, *some* games start up fine. Start up means by the time I select a game from the list until the time the game screens appear (credits, opening screens, etc)
Some games when launched from Mamewah either take a very long time or just give me a blank screen. Ending both mame and mamewah in Task Manager doesn't help much. I usually have to press the reset button on the pc. One example is 1941 runs fine from Mamewah, but 1942 locks up.
When I boot Win98, go to command prompt and type: mame 1942, the game loads fine. No slowness at all. Any game from command prompt runs fine.
Is there something in the mamewah config I need to test/change? Should I just try a different frontend?
Mods: this could be moved over to Software Forums now that this doesn't appear to be hardware related. Thnx!

You should rename this with mamewah in the title so Minwah will take a look at it. That grabs his attention pretty good. Another good title would be: Minwah, what's up with your program? ??? lol, im just kidding, but you should put something to that affect in the title. I just thought you were showing off your computer.
