had some time ago wouldn't run on xp.

Hi,

I don't know when this happened, but apparently the MAME project 
has
stopped providing 32-bit Windows binaries. I'm assuming here that 
your
XP system is 32-bit and not 64-bit. If that's not correct, the 
latest
MAME may be able to work on XP, though I'm not sure. Since I have
nothing whatsoever to do with the development of MAME, there's 
not much
if anything I can do about this. Does anyone else have any 
thoughts?

Thanks,

Jayson
