I have scoured all the files in that dir and havn't found 'combo exit' anywhere. I have however fixed the problem by pysically moving the buttons so they are opposite on the joystick. I remapped all the controls and its nolonger a problem. Im pretty lost, however mame is working fine, just need to find out why the MapKeys doesn't work for gens! Cheers Ben

This sounds exactly like the problem i am having. I have been looking through the advanced configuration for something like that almost all day. But i can't find any options like it. Anyone happen to know where abouts the options are? Thanks guys Ben

In the emulators it works fine, i can mash the joysticks to my hearts content and all the mappings are perfect. GameEx remains running in the background, no crashing. So basically i am able to run the game up again straight away with no problems. Other than it quitting the next time the conditions are met. Once i knew it was something down to GameEx i went and changed all the MAME options in GameEx to be as basic and like the raw command line as possible. The problem still occurs. If i unplug the arcade controls and use a normal wired usb keyboard, the problem still occurs. Cheers Ben

Firstly, thanks for a terrific piece of software. My Cocktail cabinet used to be running a stripped down ubuntu install. But i was having problems getting suspending to work so i went to XP. And found GameEx. Terrific piece of kit thanks. I noticed that MAME, Gens and any other emulator when launched from GameEx crashes when the player 1 joystick is in the Up+Left position. This equates to keys 2+4 on a keyboard. I have scoured the config files for something that could be causing this action as the emulators work brilliantly alone. Any help will be VERY appreciated and concrete my decision to dropping a few pounds to get rid of the nag screens!! Thanks Ben
