Lady gamer needs help: Mame .61 exits at full screen /trackball hack

<< < (2/2)

gurnie:
I edited my prior post to reflect that I will be upgrading my gaming rig to better components and moving the parts to the arcade.

The new specs (parts from my old rig) will be a Pen 4 3ghz, 1 gig ram, 256 ati radeon 1600 something-something.

what direct X version should mame .61 be using?

Ed_McCarron:
My P3 650 stuttered with XP on it.  Using .96 or so Mame.

Replaced XP with 98SE.

No more stuttering.

That is what I would suggest.  Downgrade your OS for your old system.  The new gaming rig should be able to use the current version of MAME with no issues as long as you stick with XP.

Zebidee:
Sound stutter could be related to the triplebuffer setting.  Leave it off/disabled by default.

Some games work better with it enabled, but you can set that in their individual .ini files.

I want to thank everyone for helping me with the arcade problems I was having.  I am now able to run the games VIA a window outside of XP  :applaud:

I'll make a post about the trackball when I take a gander and see what brand it is.

Oh and the tripple buffer setting are switched off, but i'll put the computer back into the arcade tonight and see if I am still having sound issues.
