You could help it just a tad if the BIOS supports it and increase/decrease the amount of system ram dedicated to video and give it back to the overall system. At the time that particular PC/motherboard came out, Intel was in it's infancy in regards to onboard video. It's just been my experience with that particular onboard graphics that it tends to eat up your CPU usage more then an integrated ATI, Nvidia, or even the long forgotten S3 Savage. Your options are somewhat limited, but at least you do have options.īecause of the CPU usage on that old Intel chipset. You could OF COURSE always use an older version of mame, even do something like installing the old ArcadeOS and do it in DOS. might cause some frame rate issues even in basic games like galaga and what not. If plunking down money for a Radeon or GeForce seems too extravagant, something like a PCI Rage XL off of eBay for a couple bucks, would still serve you better then that intergrated Intel junk, which. in fact I've thrown away computers NEWER then that, that I have been given over the years.įor sure you'll wanna get more ram though. Guess it really depends on how much you want to put into it, to get the most out of it. You'd probably want to consider going with like a Radeon 7000, or maybe a GeForce 5500 in the PCI version for a little more meat.

The motherboard itself has crappy integrated Intel video and only 2 PCI slots for expansion.

The max ram on that old PC is 1gig, I'd for sure hunt down some old 184 pin DDR memory to slap into it. I can remember playing MAME back on my old Windows Millennium Edition PC that sported a 450Mhz K6-III chip with 128megs of RAM, so OF COURSE it will work. Uncle T's setup guide should work fine for v.106 Ī lot of new people also start out using Maximus Arcade for the Front End. However if you're using an older version anyway, it's one of the easier front-ends to use. Mala is no longer being updated and won't work with the current version of MAME out of the box. It might not have the look you want for the final product, but it's good to test and learn with.įor a front-end to make it look more Arcade-y. This will let you pick and launch the games and change settings without having to edit files or use a front-end. So if you search for "MAME32 106", it shouldn't be hard to find. Since a lot of people use it, it's possible to find roms for that version.Īlternatively, there are unofficial builds of MAME that incorporate a user interface, which you'd probably find useful until you get a feel for how things work.
