In Reply to: What's the most reliable Mame setup under Win98 with arcade monitor? posted by Mhoward211 on January 14, 2002 at 14:47:54:
: Ok, all the parts are bought, assembled and the operation system is ready to be installed. I will be running Win98 so that I can play both Mame and several PC games. I have a 25" WG arcade monitor hooked to a Trident Blade 3d video card for the video. Will I need to use both VsyncMame and AdvanceMame with Mame32 to ensure the proper signal get's sent to my monitor? Or do I just use one or the other but not all three?
Micahel,
I run Win98 with AdvanceMame and AdvanceMenu and so far think it's about the best setup, it takes a bit more work to get going, but is worth it in the end. I'm not sure about running PC games with AdvanceMenu though. It runs in DOS mode which I think excludes what you are talking about. I haven't used Raging Dragon at all so I may not be the best person to ask though...
: Lastly..Win98 frontends... Which should I choose for my setup? Is Raging Dragon the only front end in which I could include my PC games? (At least this is the assumption I am making from reading the Raging Dragon's readme.doc) And how would a front end know to use for example VsyncMame with Mame32 to ensure the proper output?
: Thanks to any and all who can help this project become playable.
