What the hell is this Tom!? Are you cheating on us! Seriously, what is it?

Maybe the nvidia drivers are different (i used ati), but it seems tom is right. It just wont work.

Are you using mame or mame32? Load a game that is not working, exit gameex, go to the start menu, go to the gameex menu, select "run last game" see if that works properly. If not then: right click on "run last game" and select edit. Add "pause" as the very last line, save it, then run that link. Maybe you will see what is not working correctly by doing this. If that doesnt work or give you some info, I would recommend deleting all your mame files (not roms) and installing them again. Then make sure you have the correct arguments in the mame setup.

I hope that means we were pretty thorough!

I tried it already. Doesnt work.

Well, to be honest, I never tried it with gameex! I just know they both have them.

Heres what you can do first.... Just exit gameex and everything. Go to start>applications>gameex>run last game.bat That should load the last game you tried to run in gameex. See if it runs slowly from this launcher as opposed to gameex.

In the meantime if you use nvidia or ati, they both have a screen rotation feature that you can get a hotkey mapped to. It does the mouse as well.

Are the games running at full speed outside of gameex? Are you using the same command switches? What is the processor? Pentium 4?

Dont forget to turn on show clones, "I want Mahjong", and adult games on if you want to see them all.

Well, I was more talking about the software side of things. Maybe an emulator will need this service, or what about those of us that use it for an HTPC that has alot more software than a stripped down cab, as examples. But who knows, I only tried it once so I don't really have any experience with it.

I tried an nlited install once and it didnt run too well. I didnt try with gameex mind you. I kind of have to agree with nologic on this one, but you answer most of the questions anyways Even if there was someone with some experience with it here, It would be hard to tell everyone what is best for thier situation, as not everyones cab is the same and someone might require different components on thier cab.

Try tuning off verify roms in the advanced config tool Also, if you havent already, I would run all your roms through one of the various rom checking utilities.

Good job man! It looks perfect!

Yup, I have no probs with my logitechs also. Im glad I didnt get the 360 now, that would drive me nuts too.

Turn off the DVD uses ffdshow option in the advanced config

The atrl+alt+arrow key doesnt work on my computer.... :/

Wont gameex do it if you push tab? Maybe another option is to install an extra button on the cab and have it simulate the hotkey for flipping the screen via your video card drivers.

maybe he would like the game launcher mode?

If you have the TV and computer monitor hooked up at the same time you should try switching the TV to the primry display. If not try making gameex run in 1900x1080 resolution in the advanced cofig tool. I read somewhere that on some tv's only one of the HDMI ports runs 1080p while the others are limited to 720p or something ridiculous like that. I dont knowhow much truth there i to that. But try a different HDMI anyways.

Thank you both!

If it helps any, it looks like gameex is minimizing before it goes in standby. I think....

You dont need a special soundcard or anything fancy for passthrough. Like I said mine works fine, with my onboard sound or audigy2zs. Make sure gameex is using the powerdvd decoder for the DVD's. It might be using some other codec you have on your system.

This problem is repeatable for me everytime I use ffdshow and tell it to use the xvid codec instead of libavcodec. Make sure it is set to use libav. If that doesnt work, simply install xvid, and set ffdshow to be disabled with xvid files.

galaga is not under clones. its an imperfect rom so you need to allow imperfect roms in the advanced config.
