MAMEWorld Forums - EmuChat - Re: Noob trying to get the first rom running

Yikes! Questions! Lol, I've tried on two different machines, both running Windows 7. One is a stock Lenovo Thinkpad T410, but the one that I'd really like to run it on is a desktop running an intel processor, and I'm trying to remember here, but I think it's a quad core 2.6. Not 100% sure on that until I can get home and look it up though. It's definitely running 8gb ram. On board graphics. I'll get more details when I make it home

So far for games, I've tried starfire, top gunner, and side track, obtained from Maamedev.org, and whatever version of pong came installed with mameuifx.

I started out with the stock command line mame, then tried with Mala, then tried the mameuifx, same results with each.

I haven't tried directx drivers yet, honestly never occurred to me. That'll be my first step this evening. Can't hurt to try

It's hard to say for sure, but I think that things are hanging before I type ok. No response to any input, including esc. I've been quitting via task manager, as nothing else will respond to any sort of input.

Let's see, did I miss any questions here? Lol let me know of I did. Also, this time I'm on my phone at lunch, so please excuse any typos or stupid autocorrections.

Thanks again, I REALLY appreciate the help!
