86749 2002-10-07 06:17:00 Naturally, I have them already and just want them to back up my old hardware.

I used to have a pile, now I don't, and I would like to grab a few. Anyone have any suggestions?

86750 2002-10-07 07:04:00 It's ages since I've been out hunting for them. But the last time I used them I searched in Google for MAME. -=JM=- (16)
86751 2002-10-07 07:14:00 JM, you should know me better than that. Been there and got all sorts of popups and bollocks.
Anyone got a specific location that is safe and okay?

86752 2002-10-07 07:49:00 Hi Rob, Ive got about 220 Roms but I downloaded them over a year ago. Your post prompted me to search for some more (you can never have enough :-) ) and I see what you mean. All the old links I had are either dead or closed down and now all those damn top25 bollocks ones are all you get. I can never get to a proper site from them -they are just a maze backing onto eachother.

In doing a search in Kazaa (Mame rom) theres a few hits - some with huge file sizes so they seem to be someones entire collection. Cant vouch for the safety of them though. Im happy to share the ones I have but Im only on dialup so would take a little while :-(

86753 2002-10-07 07:50:00 A friend said that http://www.vipersroms.cjb.net was a good place. Know it has newer roms, dunno about MAME support?! Might do though!

Try it and see if you get what you want!

86754 2002-10-07 07:54:00 I know a wee while back there was a chat room in WinMX for sharing them!

Also good for music Videos (I'm just getting Doctor Evil - Hard knock life, coz I luv MiniMe!)

The one I need to track down (for a friend, honest) is missile command.
Could you email that to me on my official idg address? It should be less than 32kb unzipped.
thanks

86756 2002-10-07 08:22:00 Rob, on its way. Let me know if you dont get it. parry (27)
86757 2002-10-07 08:27:00 BUT - does your friend have the original? Chilling_Silence (9)
86758 2002-10-07 08:32:00 Im sure he does. Just like I park my car on the street because of the 220 spacies machines sitting in my garage :-) parry (27)
