  Would be nice to get it over to some really minimal hardware Linux variant and no more DOS drivers.

    im just get tired of dos sound card probs and the video card sliping out

  Linux won't solve any mechanical issues, such as video cards falling out. My vectormame PC still has its case, thus a screw and clamp to hold the video card in.

    I have ZERO problems with my setup. I'm using CT4810's (PCI Soundblaster) for all my MAME projects (the card's built-in amp can be run right to an arcade speaker.) Please email me offlist if you want a ZIP file of my SB driver setup. It's solid.

  I'm using DOS 5 and the CT4700 (SB PCI128 -- circa 1998) successfully as well.
