Yappy's MAME Project

Week 2

 

I finally received my P4 2.4Ghz PC upgrade to replace my old 550Mhz PC to be uses as my MAME machine.  I had to build a MAME Machine with spare parts laying around.  This weeks purchases were a Marquee for the top of my Machine and Creative Labs Inspire 2.1 amplified speakers.  I'm having problems with certain video games and Video.  Think the problem is video card related.

 

I purchased a set of amplified speakers since it is ready its complete only thing I have to do is mount it in the arcade.
