This was my vague assumption. I might just knock up a quick DOS script to do this for me cheers for the suggestion. I am using ArcadeVGA and it may be the control centre for catalyst

Hi, I created a shortcut and placed it under All Users >> Start Menu >> startup (also tried under the admin user) However when the system starts up and Gameex tries to start the following error is thrown RRORS DETECTED: EXITING 08:58:46.4 12/01/2010: Error in the application. 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: at Microsoft.DirectX.DirectDraw.Surface.DrawInternal(tagRECT* destRectangle, Surface sourceSurface, tagRECT* srcRectangle, DrawFlags flags, DrawEffects& bltEffects) 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: at Microsoft.DirectX.DirectDraw.Surface.Draw(Rectangle destRectangle, Surface sourceSurface, Rectangle srcRectangle, DrawFlags flags) 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: at j.f(Boolean A_0) 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: at j.af() 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: It was detected you experienced a DirectX error. 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: Please note the following for possible solutions to your problem: 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: 1.

Try a different theme, or try running the theme at the resolution it was designed for 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: 6. Try the latest version of GameEx. GameEx is updated all the time. 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: 7. If you performed an auto update to this version. Try performing a manual download and install. 08:58:46.5 12/01/2010: It works fine if I then try to open it up after though. Any ideas? Cheers Dan

I am from a little place called Hervey Bay, QLD, Australia

Hi, I was just wondering whether gameex uses its own list or whether it uses the files built by mame32 etc Cheers Dan

Is there a way, that when you start a game the GameEx that it will automatically put credits into the game? Cheers Dan

Thanks for the reply. I ended up downloading the snaps in the end

Hi, I am talking about MAME. And i have the latest and registered version. Kind Regards Dan

I can't get the take snapshots option to show up no matter what I try. It is enabled in config and I have tried different themes but it just will not show up. Any ideas?
