I can't believe these logos are still here, I'm glad they are because I couldn't find my own copies. Wow, seven years ago I'm getting old. ;P

After years of running my gaming system on an old machine, I am finally moving it all to a newer system. AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core 4200+ 2GB Ram Windows 7 Professional 64 bit What emulators run the best under the Windows 7 64 bit Operating System? John

I figured it out.

Mine doesn't seem to work that way. When I click the game it launches the game. If I press the L key then I get the screen that shows the options, but the Add Favorites doesn't seem to work.

Can someone tell me how to add games to my favorites list?

I had a real Merlin as a child, I didn't really enjoy it but thanks for the memories.

It looks like the number of allowed downloads has been exceeded, so I can't download it.

I am having the same problem too.

I,m using the Valhalla theme too and the latest changes does make the background change when you select an emulator, but when you return to the main screen it doesn't switch back to the base background. Anyone else have this problem?

This Rubik's cube sub woofer would look great next to an Arcade cabinet. http://projectcube2007.blogspot.com/ John

I was having the same problem earlier today, but the problem seems to be fixed. GameEx downloaded and installed the latest update prefectly. Maxx

GameEx just finished downloading the update and the install worked great. Maxx

The download stalls out after the progress bar moves about 1/4 of the total distance, then the program closes. Maxx

It seems to have worked. I am currently downloading the update. Maxx

I currently have version 9.49 installed. When I launch GameEx I am not prompted to update to 9.50. Any ideas whay? Maxx

Thanks. I got Windows Vista, another gig of ram and a Nvidia GeForce 8600GT for my birthday so it was pretty good.

From the error message, it looks like a resolution problem. Make sure you have a theme that matches your screen resolution. 23:08:47.9 06/01/2008: Error: One or more theme objects were outside the bounds of the resolution MaxxDamage

I created a new set of Mame logos for my machine and I thought I would share. Maxx Damage **These have been reuploaded with the drop shadow removed per the messages below.**

I made a few logos for emulators that I installed. Since I am already using Noligic's logos, I tried to match his logos. I am out of practice with Photoshop so they didn't come out as good as I would have like but here they are. MaxxDamage

I just installed the latest update and it went smoothly, so it looks like this error is fixed. Thanks Tom.

See that's what is great about this software. Two errors reported today and already a fix has been released. Thanks for the fast action. John

I just upgraded from version 8.51 to 8.53 and I received the same error message about 3/4 of the way through the downloading process. After hitting the continue button the download and install completed. John

I am still getting an error when Auto-Updating, but thanks to the new progress bar I was able to tell the install was working. The update downloaded and installed. I copied the following error information from the details.

That was the same answer we gave when I worked the help desk too. I did reboot several times and reinstalled the drivers at least twice with no luck, so I just turned it off for a while and it finally reconnected after reinstalling a fresh set of drives. During this issue I realized there is no way to know if the updates are actually downloading or if the download has stalled. Would it be possible to add a count down on the downloading screen? Something like 0MB of 12MB downloaded. John

I tried updating to this version and I received an unhandled exception error during the download process and now my computer won't connect to the internet. John
