Bonuses such as progressive bonuses are based on the activity of many players playing at many machines. The machines may be made by different manufacturers and run different games. Prior diverse arrays of such machines relied on a hardware slot machine interface board (SMIB) that acted as a master and transmitted game activity to remote servers. A disclosed embodiment virtualizes the SMIB. In one implementation, protected processes allow for real time meter creation and destruction within different games, even after the game software has been certified and the hash cannot change. Memory is allocated for protected processes. The protected processes are isolated from the software based game. It is not allowed to inject a thread into the protected process or access memory allocated to the protected process. It is not allowed to debug an active protected process.

Des bonus tels que des bonus progressifs sont basés sur lactivité dune pluralité de joueurs jouant sur une pluralité de machines. Les machines peuvent être fabriquées par différents fabricants et exécuter des jeux différents. Des réseaux divers de lart antérieur de telles machines étaient basés sur une carte interface de machine à sous matérielle qui agissait comme machine principale et transmettait une activité de jeu à des serveurs éloignés. Un mode de réalisation selon la présente invention virtualise le carte interface de machine à sous matérielle. Selon  un mode de réalisation, des traitements protégés permettent la création et la destruction de compteurs en temps réel dans des jeux différents, même après la certification du logiciel de jeux et lempreinte numérique ne peut pas être modifiée.
