The turtle beach card may cause us some problems (I only use SB 16 ISA cards in my cabs) but the rest of the config looks great. I'll email you directly when I get a disk put together.

Thanks...

: sure that would be great(my email is included this time)

: its a Dell Dimension
: 256 MB RAM
: Turtle Beach Montego A3D PCI sound Card
: Pentium II 450 MHZ
: nVIDIA TNT 1.10 graphics card

: : Great, I'll send you a link as soon as it is ready. What is the configuration of the system that you are installing on? (memory, cpu, soundcard, etc)


: : : currently i am loading nothing in config.sys.
: : : i would be interested in the distribution and would be willing to try it out.
: : : thanks a bunch.

: : : : What are you loading in config.sys? I have had problems with MAME and AOS when loading memory managers (ie, QEMM, HIMEM, or EMM386). Note that these are completely unnecessary when running DPMI apps like MAME.

: : : : I am contemplating releasing a simple distribution to make setting up a DOS based cab easier; just about have a bootable ISO ready for testing. Let me know if you are interested and I'l post it for you to try out.

: : : :
: : : : : Wait a few more seconds after that, it should come up. Also, you only need cwsdpmi.exe, you can delete the other files.

: : : : : : i have been trying to get MAME w/ ArcadeOS frontend to run in pure DOS, when i do i get this error "Load Error - no DPMI - Get csdpmi*b.zip". I got csdpmi5b.zip from http://www.mameworld.net/dosmame/downloads.htm and putting the 4 cws files(cwsparam.exe, cwsdstub.exe,cwsdpr0.exe,and cwsdpmi.exe) that came with it in both the Arcadeos folder and the Mame folder. now everytime i restart in pure DOS mode and try to run Arcadeos it waits a couple seconds and the screen goes blank and nothing happens. what am i doing wrong?
