try these places guys

www.romnation.net
www.romhustler.com

they say you have to vote but dont bother as it'll lead to countless popups. It wont corrupt your download if you dont vote.

Also...I've had a few problems with some of my downloads. I've downloaded Street Fighter 3 for mame and have the latest version of mame but games like that still dont want to work. Anything I can do to rectify this problem? If it helps, I'm running a temporary setup of an AMD dual core 3800+, with 2GB ram and 200GB HDD also with 2 x 6600GT in SLI Mode. I'm saying temporary coz my parents are giving me their FX60 with 4GB ram 2x 200GB HDD and soon to be 2x 7800GTX in SLI mode. AWESOMENESS!!! AWESOMENESS I say!!!

Wait, arents most of these games old ROMS? If thats the case then I'm sure even a less than average comp by today's, or even a couple of years ago standards will run them no problem. Shit, if they're NES or SNES roms you could run them on the ole 486's and 586's tongue.gif

yes an average computer will run mame32, depending on if you want to run a totally 3D game or not, but stuff like street fighter no problem. i have an arcade machine in the lounge running mame32 and its only a 700MHz PC with a crap video card in it, and it runs most of the 5000 games on it :-)

My ex boyfriend has every ROM that has ever been released. And no, I'm not kidding. He used to spend all of OUR time together on his computer downloading them sleep.gif I must have the patience of a fkn saint.

If you want anything I can ask him to burn them on disc for me?

I love neogeo games. Especially the King Of Fighters series. I'd love to have all the neogeo roms but some rom sets dont work with XP. You should get a PS2 to PC controller converter. Lets you use a PS2 control on your PC www.lik-sang.com

so i just tried out the newest version of mame32 (v0.111) and it is great! all the roms work, and all of my newer games that used to be sluggish or not run at all are now running sweetly!

i upgraded from v0.36 and the difference is outstanding. anyone who hasn't tried it yet get on it!

so does that mean you have to download the newest romsets or you can use old and existing roms??

existing roms all good - as far as i can tell the new mame versions just add roms to the "working" list, or clear up bug or performance issues.
