jason field Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 evening all.. i will be getting a new computer hopefully over the weekend with windows 10, ( im still on 7 lol ) as im more into 90,s machines and will most likely only want to play those on the emulator, which version is best for me? am i right in saying some of the older fruitys will not play on the latest emulator download? or will everything play on the latest one? Also, i have a nice collection of 90,s machines so if theres anything you dont have good photos of? for emulation id be more than happy to post/email some across 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logopolis Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 Download the MFME 19 emulator for Windows 10 in the downloads section and then update it to 19.8. Some of those 90s machines will only work in MFME 5.1 but you can then save the layouts so they are able to load in MFME 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 They will all work in v19.8 I converted them all in the Legacy section, granted some may well need some adjustments to be 100% playable but in the whole they all work. 1 Not Retired from FME June 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that's ok... ...as easy as that. Be sure the hard disk is installed tho - that's very important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the legacy ones are .RES and .DAT layouts convereted to .FML. Some things may need slight adjusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slasher Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 All in one are terrible in general. Monitor goes and you've an expensive paperweight. With a normal pc at least components can be replaced easily. Sure monitors shouldn't go in this day and age but you'd be surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slasher Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 My laptop has 8GB of RAM and an Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4300U CPU @ 1.90GHz CPU and runs things absolutely fine, so would say go for something similar 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
