the computer i'm using is really a 450mhz 100mhz FBS P3 with 192RAM. i tried playing SF2 with MAME and it worked fine for the most part but when some characters jump is slows down. i guess it wil work for older games but for some snes based arcade games it may run slowly. i know with ZSNES running it on that computer above would not be aproblem. i havent tried MameWah on it yet but i think it will work. i am a bit more inclinde to get a different computer. some thing like an AMD Athlon XP 2200. the problem is i cant find any.

I think you will find SF2 in MAME more demanding than ZSNES - You also can tweak the settings to speed MAME up somewhat.  Mamewah or your frontend shouldn't be a problem.

how do you tweak MAME to make it run faster?

Increase Frameskip, decrease audio samplerate, change to lower resolution, experiment with D3D settings, etc.

to bluntly say that he needs a new computer is inaccurate.

mame will run on a 400mhz pc.

i ran nesticle on a 233mhz pc, snes9x on a 600mhz pc.

you dont need a new pc, you just need to look for the best compatibility.
