Perfect that's what I needed to know. Thanks for the help.

Hey guys, I've been thinking recently of switching to Windows 7 64 Bit since my Vista systems acts all....vistaey. This will be my first 64 bit OS and I've checked and found out that most of my apps will run just fine but my concern is with all my emulators. I'm researching them individually and some of their websites are seriously lacking information on this. So here's the question: In your experience, do most emulators run fine in 64bit? Are their any that you know specifically don't work? My main systems that I can't live without are N64 and SNES. Everything else I can live without but ideally I would like to keep the whole collection. Thanks

I use multiple Xbox 360 wireless controllers and I just wanted to add my experience so you can better understand how they work. First you need 1 USB Wireless Dongle (The official Microsoft thing....I forget what its called). With that you can run up to 4 wireless X360 controllers. With most emulators I've used I have found that you have to have the controllers on before you start them up. If they are off the emu reverts back to the keyboard setting. Specifically I find Project 64 irritating because if you don't use a controller when you start it up, next time you boot it up it will still remain on they keyboard input. For example, if I play Zelda, I only use 1 controller. Then when I turn on Mario Kart for some 4 player, I have Player1 set to controller, and P2,3,&4 set to keyboard. This requires mouse and keyboard to fix, which is annoying on an easy to use family set up. There are fixes for this, I know some people have used Xpadder (I think thats the name) and other similar apps that allow you to map button commands and then GameEx can run this with the emu. I haven't had much luck with this option when it comes to good analog support but your mileage may vary. Additionally, I have noticed that pressing the Xbox Guide button will crash my n64 emu but that's no big deal. All in all I love the controllers and I don't have any problems with other emu's but PJ64 insists on reverting my controllers back to keyboard (this would obviously not happen with wired controllers). I haven't used them much for PC games but I know that most of the newer Games for Windows support the controller and don't have any issue with turning them on and off while playing games. Hope that info helps!

I understand that, what I was trying to say is that the Launch After command is working. Say I mount an image myself, then I load up SSF (through gamex). When I close SSF, Daemon Tools should now unmount the image before loading back to GameEX. That is what is happening for me, which means that its working correctly. The problem I've been having is that the Launch Before command doesn't load Daemon Tools at all. However I think I just fixed the problem by setting Daemon Tools to Also Launch. I understand that can cause a problem because Daemon and SSF are loading up together but I've just been testing it back and forth switching games for the last 20 minutes and everything is working great now. This method also worked for Scran but his problem is that the emulator won't go full screen when he does that (which didn't happen to me, I get full screen just fine.)

I've been playing around with it some more and discovered something, though not enough to solve my problem. I tried mounting an image myself while the emulator was running, and then when I hit ESC to go back to GameEX and I check Daemon, the image is unmounting. Which basically means that the Launch After Command is working. The other thing I've realized is that Launch Before isn't opening up Daemon Tools at all. So it's not a problem with Daemon Tools not mounting an image as suspected. At first I thought maybe SSF was booting up too quick and loading before Daemon Tools but that's not the case.

I too am having the exact same problem. For some reason Daemon tools won't mount any image when I choose Launch Before. Most of the time my Saturn EMU comes up saying no disc. If i take out the Launch After command then everything will work just fine, however I can only pick 1 game, that game remains mounted no matter which other game I choose. Anyone have any suggestions? By the way, for a while I couldn't figure out why whenever I boot up SSF through GameEx I would get sound but no picture (full screen). It turns out for this emu I had to set the settings to Show Desktop=True. That fixed that if anyone else runs into that problem.

My upgrade history is short. I started this program on version 7.9. When I chose disable for those options it didn't work. I still can't figure out why but I thought it would be best to upgrade to the latest version before posting a question. Version 8.5 didn't fix the problem either. I've been playing around with the configuration files but so far I've only been able to rename the Most Played/Favorites in the Menu, but still can't disable them. Aside from that, I'm running on XP Media Center 2002 SP2. Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ 2GHz with 1GB ram. I'm trying to disable everything from the menu with the exception of just my emulators. Hope that information is useful. Thanks

So far I love this program and everything has been going great except for one small problem. I want to remove the Most Played, Favorites, and Theme Picker menus from showing up in the program. I disabled them in the advanced configuration and yet they still show up. Everything else that I've disabled had no problems removing itself from the menu. Any suggestions? I tried installing the current version (8.5) but that didn't change anything. Thanks
