I looked up issues on MACH 3, some, but didn't find what I'm experiencing: I start the game and get a blue screen with "Initilizing Disk......1..stop disk.......2..start disk", which after a short spell turns black with the readout remaining, and then it crashes and exits. All other games I've tried work fine.

(Incidentally, I noticed someone can play Firefox; I have what's needed to run....but Daphne doesn't support it.)

If you are referring to that old mame build hacked to run it, you probably don't have what's needed. It used an odd-ball video format or something, I never could get it to work.

I don't know. It came fromt he same source as most of the others and they work.

Also, does anyone know what's going on with Firefox?

like you said yourself, Firefox isn't supported. I'm not sure what other info you could be looking for.

What he said......

Like I said, the only pupposedly playable firefox emulator is a mame hack and the files are NOT the same kind used by daphne and afaik are not available anywhere.

Oh oh oh, whooops - I didn't notice which part of my original post you'd quoted, Howard. I though you meant about MACH 3. Chip, I was trying to elicit some response in the vein of..."Firefox isn't supported because....", which finally Howard addressed...although the files I have seem to be the same kinds as the others - mpeg of the video, winamp media file...it doesn't have a dat file, hmmm.

As to my main question about MACH 3, any ideas, there?

(Oh, and, incidentally, the FAQ link isn't functional.)

Tantamount,

You may want to drop by the Daphne chat room. You may find the answer to your question there.
