Hardware stretching crashes, please help
« on: February 09, 2003, 09:15:44 am »
If I use hardware stretching, a lot of my ROMs will crash out the computer. It's a 1.2 GHZ machine running Win98 with 256MB RAM and MAME32 v.64. The video card is a Maxi Gamer Xenter 32. I'm guessing that's too old for a video card to run MAME? What are some good video card recommendations. Or any hints, tips, tricks to make this one work?

What chipset does that card use? It may be that the card doesn't support the Direct3D calls needed for hardware stretching correctly. About any newer card should have no troubles with hardware stretch.

It uses the TNT2 chipset.
