Each Time i try and run pinmame it opens a msdos windows and the closes real quick! Why? I have win98 850Mhz 256 rm, is it windows or. . .

I haven't used PinMAME yet, but you're definitely running the DOS version. If you want the Windows version, run VisualPinMAME or PinMAME32. Or, you could open up a DOS box and run PinMAME through command line...

Simple way to get dos exes working is just to create a shortcut of that file to the desktop or wherever . Then Go to the shortcut and right click , go to the program tab and where it says "cmd line" delete that line and enter command.com

Click apply and thats it

Now whenever you open the shortcut it takes you straight to the dso prompt in that directory ;)

Then like usual just type pinmame

Tho Visual Pinball owns :) Most Pinmame games like Addams Family , Indy500 , Twilight Zone etc.. are the BEST :)
