: : I'm using a 25" T.V. in my cabinet and I run Win98SE as my O.S. I use windows front ends for mame and all the other emulators I use too. The only thing I had to do was increase the font on the game list so they were easier to read. I'm running at 800X600 resolution on my computer since that's as high as the t.v. can handle. It doesn't make the games look bad though. I also run PC games such as Quake3 Arena, Alice, Pinball, NFL Blitz 2000, and Mech War4. The ONLY problem with the T.V. is that since it can't run at high resolutions like the PC monitor, small font is blurry. I tried playing Deus EX (another PC game) on it and the game used font that is way to small for the t.v. As far as the picture though, I think the T.V. looks better than the PC monitor, but that's just me. Anyway to answer your question, yes it will work with Windows and PC games. I should take some shots of PC games running on the cabinet too...hmmm I just might do that if there is interest.

: : Game on!! Brian

: : : If a 25" monitor is SVGA Compatible, will it be able to handle the Windows GUI? How about PC Games? Should a person just look for a 21" PC Monitor?

: : : Thanks
