Hey peeps, Ive decided it’s time to start upgrading my Arcade PC. My current PC is a Frankenstein machine that I put together maybe 10 years ago when I started with GameEx. It does the job but I’d like to have it running silky smooth and also future proof for Evolution. I admit it’s been a while since i read up on hardware specs so I figured I ask what you all think. I just need a Motherboard CPU (i7 or is i5 good enough and which version) Ram (depending on price i would want 16gigs) GPU (really clueless on this) Thanks for any help

Heey Guys, I bought a new subscription today but wasn't too pleased with the upgrading process. I installed 14.49 over an existing 12 installation but games wouldn't launch and the theme doesn't display correctly. I then proceeded to delete all generated files (everything but GameEx.ini) and reinstalled 14.49. I then rebuild the mame list. The following problems are still present: - The theme does not display its background anymore (Its black) (And foreground on some emulator menus, at random) - The application becomes black when changing views (and then crashes after finishing playing the current MP3 file) - The screenshots take extremely long to load (about 4 minutes for ~30 screenshots, in current small snap grid view) - The game video snaps are no longer displayed as background in game select (in emulator + mame) - GameEx doesn't show the launch text i configured anymore (it shows status dialog) - The Launch dialog keeps flashing but doesn't do anything - No games can longer be launched (The screen goes black, crashes after MP3 file finishes) To the best of my knowledge (checked GameEx.ini + Log.txt) All paths are setup correctly, the files are present, and worked before the upgrade I am using Windows XP SP3+ on an x86 machine, and i am launching GameEx as an administrator (and the key file is registered in the registry) (Some emulators have been switched around so it makes sense that emu_x =/= emu_x) I searched the forums before posting but the topics resolved can't solve my issues. Are any of these problems known? Any suggestion what might be wrong/what to do to fix these issues? Thanks in advance, Nikos GameEx.ini GameEx.UpgradeBackup.ini log.txt
