So head on over to http://retrorelive.20.forumer.com/index.php . . .and join up....

Not exactly . . .I'm saying that older games - eg many 2D shooters, which rarely get made now - appeal to me more for their playability rather than the current gen reliance on fancy graphics and...

Thanks for the link . . .

. . .I read it but it doesn't make a heap of sense to me because, for a start, I haven't got a "security" tab in the folders proerties.

Strange thing is . . .my other...

Yes have the latest dats . . .plenty of hd space.

Someone on another forum said make sure the diff folder in mame32 is write-enabled but when I checked the properties it had "read-only" checked...

Oh boy . . .I've been lookin' for THAT game.

Any chance you could upload it sometime . . .thanks :santa:

That's the thing about modern games . . .they're so bloody long that i haven't the patience to finish 'em.

Prefer arcade and retro games . . .like shooters so you can see how many lives it takes...

Just bought The Movies for PC, 'cos it was on special offer . . .

. . .bloody tough game to get into AND you have to d/l latest graphics drivers. :-/

Decided to get back into Burnout 2 on XBox . . .best Burnout game of the lot IMHO . . . :nod:

Well thanks guys . . .

. . .I can assume I didn't get TOO ripped-off then . . . :lol :scared:

I checked the CRC and MD5 in ClrMamePro and everything looked okay . . . :qq:

Yeah . . .you've just jogged my memory. i used to have a slots emulator with a crapload of roms - but for the life of me I can't remember what it was called.

If you recall it let me know, huh and...

Okay . . .I had a look there but as far as I can see I've done everything correctly.

eg . . .Ive got a folder called calspeed in my mame roms folder with a calspeed.chd inside. But when I try to...

Yes . . .I agree with you. I always use Ritek dye for DVDs and I have had very very few problems on a LOT of burned disks.

I recently got an infection on my old Athlon 1.7 ghz PC and so i decided to scrap it and upgrade.

I bought an ex-demo model from PC World (with no monitor) with the following specs:

Pentium 4 ...

I have a second hand Jap Dreamcast and if i leave some games in demo mode for a period of time the screen crashes back to the Time and date setup screen.

Laser problem . . .maybe :sweat:

Yeah . . .cheers mate but that's where I got my info from in the first place.

The poor guy might have had a diabetic "event" and found he was in need of a fix of sugar . . . :-P

I can't understand why people are dissing the movie. It's not like you don't know exactly what to expect given the film's gaming heritage and the choice of "actors" . . . :sigh:

From your scale, I'd give it a 1 . . .because it was plain tedious, the CGI sucked and the acting was shite . . .

. . .apart from that :damn: ???

In Bad Santa . . .

. . .Billy Bob Thornton, dressed as Santa is sitting in the Department Store restaurant with a mouthful of lettuce and stuff.

Comes along a doting mother and child . ....
