.....Lost the 'tude.... I like that

Then use your 10 year old software on your 10 year old computer like you did 10 years ago and get over it. Or get a MAC - a pc specifically designed for stupid people Or at least give us an example you what yuor problem is other than GAMEEX DOESNT MAKE MY GAMES PLAY 10 year old stuff.... you may be right - I dont think GAMEEX can run on a 286

What version of Project Tempest are you using? What is the command you are using to lauch the games? That would be cool if I can get Project Tempest working too

I am not a bittorrent fan but http://www.mameworld.net/icons/pages/mameicons.html has them *In the MNG/MP3 area Took a couple of hours to get all I mean "Yeah, Like Emugamer said" /|\

How about "Directory OPUS" or an equivilent Somethat that treats ZIP files as folders/directories at the OS level This would keep your file maintanence of those type games to a minimum

Well I got the videos working in attract mode FFDSHOW wasnt installed <----CODEC Great work there hansolo77 Bascially I just installed the latest NVIDIA drivers (99.83) and latest FFDSHOW(2006-05-26) But I am 100% percent sure it was FFDSHOW because I tried all the NVIDIA drivers already *This time I was making a list of all the versions of drivers I was trying The C: Drive existance still is an issue... But 50% of my problem is solved

Thanks for any reply I was thinking CODEC as well but the videos play if I migrate to them within GAMEEX *I am not ruling codecs out at all - could be some voodoo thing Now if I set attract mode to play video games only and C: does not exist (not mapped to G:) and attract mode kicks in - the 1st video game in attract mode will play after 2 minutes it tries to load the next one...it just exists out to the OS If C: is there (mapped to G:) the attract mode works normally (well for video games only that is) Does anyone know of some setting to activate some advanced logging or tracing so maybe something behind the scenes can be spotted? Even if log/trace files grow at a fanominal rate...I just need it on for about 5 minutes TIA /|\tari800

Hi there GAMEEX is awesome and does everything I want it to do except I noticed a couple of things when transferring my system to a more powerful system #1 If there is NO c: - the attract mode does not work correctly The next launch of a video game or vide or pressing escape exits GAMEEX out to OS - the first game in attract mode works, just touching button or joystick will boot you out I know I am 1/10th of 1 percent that does nto have a C: drive But if anyone is running into this , map a network drive to your windows drive and map to the letter C: This seems to fix it AKA something is hardcoded to an expected drive of C: some where in the attract mode routine #2 Again releated to attract mode - something happened to videos Only mpg1 videos will play in attract mode and no mpg2 videos *unless random is only picking mp1 videos each time .....theres a joke in there Now I went from Windows 2003 server, 2.8 ghz, 1gig or Ram with NVidia Geforce 5200 to a Windows 2003 Server, 3.06 Ghz HT, 1 gig of Ram with NVidia Geforce 6800 so other than speed (and hyperthreading) the machines are about the same Except on the 3.06 machine Windows boots from G: drive where as the 2.8 booted from C: Now I turned overlays on and off and about every compination of settings with in Media Player ...just to try something...but I am stumped It *smells* like a real C: drive may need to be there - maybe for scratch pad reasons and maybe a network drive isnt fast enough for *whatever* it is doing to prepare for an MPG2 video to play I am running low on disk space and need to add anothter drive here pretty soon and I can force it to be C: but if the C: drive isnt the case and WINDOWS also need to be resident on C:, I'd like to know that so I can do some juggling of mass amounts of data or reinstall Windows on that C drive...or something Any clues,ideas, facts, or theories are welcomed /|\tari800
