ok, ive almost mastered the art-of-the-emulator but i still cant figure out how to get MAME, the arcade emulator, to work. ive tried downloading it from the official site, but i get a command prompt application that doesnt even work becuase its missing files or something. could someone who has a working copy of MAME post a link to it, or just tell me where the "documentation" is that its not finding. and is there a non-command prompt version? EDIT: ive gotten MAME32 to work, but are any of you able to get killer instinct and killer instinct 2 to work? i have al the right files, im just doing something wrong with them.

I'm certain that questions regarding getting roms to work aren't appreciated over here...

Killer Instinct 1 and 2 require a separate "disk" file to run, much larger than the actual ROM. Usually it is available wherever ROMs are found. Be warned, even after getting the file to work, the emulation runs as slow as molasses. Good luck!

if youre talking about the CHD file, yes, i have that and it still wont run. i get to the screen where it makes me type "ok", then i hit my enter button, and then my screen goes black and returns to my desktop.

get the mame32n emulator here http://www.mamehot.net/emu/mame32m-0.84u3.rar i got killer instinct 2 to work with this emulator. you have to put the kinst2.chd file into a folder named 'kinst2' in your rom directory. leave the kinst2.zip in the roms directory.
