Ok, I ordered a Japanese sit down cab from Arcadestuff on ebay. It will be here on Thursday. In preparation, I have downloaded DosMAME and arcadeos. Unfortunatly, I am unable to get them to work. First my problem was with the sound card. I got a Soundblaster 16 ISA. I acadentily got a non PnP version, and have not been able to get it to work at all. CD music played in mono, and I could hear clicks. Thats it. So I switched to the on board sound. It works great, but not in DOS. So i turned sound off, and booted Arcadeos in pure DOS (up until this time, I could go through the menu, but launching a game caused my computer to reboot instantly). I can choose games, but they all come up with errors. I use the same roms in MAME32, and they work fine. Any suggestions? I read the documents that came with arcadeos, and I have checked both mame.net faqs and mameworld.net faqs but am still stuck. ANy help is much appreciated.
