In Reply to: Major changes to The MONOLITH project. AdvanceMAME / Mon-ARC help please. :) posted by Tehrasha on 29, 2000 at 2:33 AM:

I have baiscally your setup except I have the Trident Blade3d instead of the Voodoo3. You can use Mon-Arc with it as well. My machine has a dual boot menu and I can pick DOS/ArcadeOS/VsyncMAME or Windows. 640x480 isn't too bad. There is a little flicker because it's interlaced but very usable on a standard res monitor. (It can run medium res too)

: AMD K6-2 500
: SB AWE64 ISA
: Voodoo3 2000 AGP
: D-Link Ethernet Card
: HAPP 19" Standard Arcade Monitor
: AdvanceMAME / Mon-ARC Plus

: Q1) Can windows be used with this setup?
: (While I intend to run MAME in pure DOS, I would like the ability to launch Windows for file maintainance, and network support)

640 x 480 256 colors works pretty well.

: Q2) Are vertiaclly oriented games possible with this setup?

All the veritcals work (with a few config changes for different games)

: Q3) Are there any games that simply will NOT work with this style of display setup?

I haven't found any. I've been able to run a bunch of DOS games as well.
