niallquinn Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) I'm on 11 insider preview Pro build version 22000.51, and bad news, MFME doesn't work. Just crashes. Hopefully it's a MS thing that'll get fixed in time. I know there's nothing we can do, so just letting you all know. v19.8 works fine though. EDIT Weird, now v20 works, but only after you've loaded v19 first. Very odd. Edited June 30, 2021 by niallquinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niallquinn Posted June 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Ignore, it works fine. I think the first time trying it got it confused because it couldn't do the disclaimer check. @RHM, sort of, but you can have it where you want, so for me it looks like Windows 10. Try getting it on Windows Update by joining the insider programme. Seems stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectra666 Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Lappy keeps asking me to try windows11, I think I’ll wait till we know for sure mfme c5 through to v20.1 runs ok on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dad Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Had to install a load of additional windows 10 updates, then eventually was allowed to download and install the latest Beta of Windows 11. First indications are - Hmmm, I suppose its OK, at least MFME and Arcade Simulator run fine although the sound is a tad more choppy. I'm sure this will be fixed in time. Played a few games too and there semed to be a bit of a lag here and there but nothing too bad. I'm sure NVIDIA will be issuing updates too which should fix the problem. If I find any other issues I'll report them here. Gonna have a play around now and see what else is new, but just wanted to say if anyone is worried about MFME not working in Windows 11, its OK it does 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right in assuming that the situation with MFME is that the source code was private and no one else has access, so this is the end of the line for future updates? 2 adamdawes.com / Twitter @AdamDawes575.

dad Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 That's correct, the MFME source code was private which means no more updates beyond MFME 20.1. However magical things are happenning with johnparker007's Arcade Simulator which takes MFME to a whole new level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippy Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) You are correct as his updates went with him but fingers crossed like I have said before we should be ok for a long long time to come. There are other interesting things going on though like @johnparker007 Arcade Simulator which you can find by clicking on his tag or typing in the Searchbox Development Updates.

Thanks (and to dad) for the response. I've worked on plenty of closed-source projects in the past and never really given any consideration to what might happen if I died. Not really something we tend to think about. I saw a video of @johnparker007's Arcade Simulator yesterday, which does look very interesting indeed! (Walking through the virtual arcade provided a big nostalgia hit of arcades of my youth!) I'll have to take a closer look. 2 adamdawes.com / Twitter @AdamDawes575.

woodsy Posted June 3, 2024 Report Share Posted June 3, 2024 fao any win 11 users; each time i've let my lappy update it's had a bug where opening file explorer from the taskbar the screen blinks like a 13 23 30 on ladbrokes roulette doesn't execute the path and file explorer seems inaccessible from the taskbar. can anyone else let me know if the same error occurs for you? if not what build are you on, although it's just a minor thing add the enforced display for applications and windows being rounded i really think it's a exercise of fashion/glamour over function, it adds no real benefit in my experience, bring back xp ffs living the dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it is a Quad core part, as is yours! Obviously not as efficient or as good IPC as more recent CPUs, especially those from AMD, but still plenty capable of general computing. Not sure why it has been blacklisted!

wearecity Posted July 21, 2024 Report Share Posted July 21, 2024 There's ways around upgrading I believe, something to do with editing an. ini file IIRC, was one of them. I'll probably just stick with 10 on my laptop. Microsoft were cheeky saying 10 was the last Windows version. Then release 11 and then make it restricted on who can upgrade, including some people who had new machines. Surprised no one has started a super lawsuit or whatever it's called, against them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitsnappa Posted July 21, 2024 Report Share Posted July 21, 2024 Isn't one of the biggest hurdles not having TPM or secure boot not switched on or enabled for stopping Windows 11 installation? ᗧ···ᗣ···ᗣ···ᗣ···ᗣ·· Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dad Posted July 21, 2024 Report Share Posted July 21, 2024 The message “Your PC doesn’t meet the required standard” for Windows 11 doesn’t mean you can install it, or if you do it won’t work. I think it’s more likely they’re covering their arse in case there’s some driver issues. I've been running it for three years now without a problem on my I5 laptop with a GTX 1050. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do install Windows 11 on a unsupported model, be prepared for the machine to malfunction. To be clear, check your model, and if it is not supported, you're stranded on Windows 10.
