[mattyb425]

after transfering the files to my cabinet, when i try to open retroarch, im getting the error message that its not a win32 application? im running xp sp3 on the cabinet pc im trying to run it on.  any thought?

is there a 32 bit version of retroarch? i do apologize for the second grade level questions.  i had a cabinet built, and had hypersipn installed by the builder.  only MAME is currently running on it.  I'm trying to upgrade it,to run some of the earlier consoles and am having a bitch of a time doing it lol

Here a link to the latest stable 32 bit Windows version of RetroArch, give that a shot.

 

thanks again, at this point I'm as newbie as it get.  learning to do this myself if it kills me!

so the 32 bit version that is now working, does not have any cores loaded on it.  can i just transfer the cores folder from the retroarch masterv1 into the 32 bit version or do i need to find all new cores?

any other good emulators you could recommend  that could run early consoles?  (nes,snes,genesis)  i was hoping to use something that can emulate multiple systems, but after 2 days I'm still not able to retroarch to even work.  maybe ill have some luck with something different.  otherwise i can just stick with the regular emulators like fusion

well before i read this, i decided to just give fusion a shot.  GOT IT WORKING!!!!  pretty pumped about that.  Got it showing in hyperspin and everything!!!  now just need to download the themes and preview videos.  Ill definitely go with MAME for the other 2 systems so i don't have to keep doing all these file transfers between computers.  Thanks for all the help!!!!
