Response to Making mame run faster

the real key is your CPU speed, but PIII's usually have really good speed, 500mhz at ~minimum. Sometimes just setting a few things in mame can help a lot, try running with out sound (single best speed saver but no sound is sometimes annoying) , or unclikcing the "disable" mmx, unclicking double screen size, and the best switch by far, set frameskip to "Auto", displaying every frame is greate if you have a speedily emulated game but if it's hard to draw you have to up the frameskip to get it close to normal. autoframeskip is pretty good at smoothing out the slow emulation parts of a game...
