Hi, I was thinking of turning my old P100 into a dedicated DOS MAME machine. Its only got 16M Ram and I have a 40M hard drive. It has no operating system.

1. I have no CD player for it so all the software will have to be downloaded from floppy. Is there a stripped down version of DOS I can use? What are the files I will need? Can you give me a link to a helpful site?

2. The Machine has a built-in S3 video chip and I plan to wire up the VGA out to a SCART socket. Is this good enough to play most pre-'90 games?

Appreciate any advice.

JK..
