Please help me!!! :mad: :( :confused:

ok take a look in the knowledgebase, usually has answers to most problems you have in there, to find it look to the top left on the main screen, under main menu you should spot it.

The emulator you need to downlaod first is the Fruit machine emulator installation wizard. So go to the emulator download section and find it there (called FMEIW.ZIP).

Get that running then pop back and let us know if ya need any further help.

Advise you dont put your email addy here either as some unscrupulous fellows may take advantage of it, if its too late to edit it out im sure a mod will be along shortly and remove it for you

I edited the email address, cheers for letting me know Jimmymac.

Please can you not use such ambiguous thread names, 'HEY' doesn't help anyone know what to expect. I've changed that aswell.

also download MFME v2 (found on second page of the emulators download section)

Run it, go to game manager and find the directory you put the layout into. Should be off an running

well he pm'd me for help so, being the nice helpful gentleman that i normally am :eek: , decided to write a nice lengthy reply describing in detail how to get everything up and running for him.

However after writing i hit the wrong button and deleted the bastard thing.

The result of which was a rather annoyed jimmymac, thus a cigarette was needed before returning and deciding to post a much shorter and probably just as helpful reply



Bastards fecking arsing computers, not having much luck today what with the memory fiasco too :D

My answer would be that you appear to be on Windows 2000/NT and will need to install a more recent version of DirectX... note you will need a legitimate copy of Windows for that.

Should be a good link from www.microsoft.com

Do what Ben said. Download the newest version of DirectX, which is 9.0c

You can get it here if you can't find it on any other site: http://downloads.gur...oad.php?det=835
