Well, I took the plunge, and loaded windoze XP.
Got one million the updates loaded......up to SP3 now.
Loaded drivers for my Audigy 2Z, and managed to find some driver for the VIA onboard S3 graphics card.
I've gotten MAMEUI, MAME for Windows and a couple of other MAME GUI's installed.
I have a problem with the ROMS running unbearably slow.
If I use the "insert" keyboard button to speed things up, it kinda works ok but only temporarily whilst holding this key.
I know the CPU in the PC is not ultra-fast, however it's an AMD equivalent to a P4, with 1GB Ram etc.
I've looked for processes running in the background but can't see anything.
This is annoying, as the previous installation with Linux/Unbuntu had none of these issues!
