Ever since 12.45 came out I've been having problems with GameEx running. Sometimes restarting the application can fix the problem, and since I've been distracted with other tasks in setting up my arcade machine I haven't bothered with it until now. The problem I am having is that upon reaching the main GameEx menu on startup everything seems to be running fine. The Mame video snaps start playing in the lower left corner. Then when I start to navigate down the menu, the next option is Recently Played. When navigating past this option either one of three things happen: It works fine and starts playing the video for the last played game. It jams up. The computer and hard drive start thinking real hard, but GameEx never returns to a state of usefulness. I have to kill the program by Task Manager. The GameEx interface "resets" and the main menu comes back and I can navigate again. The only problem is, there is no longer any artwork. Even when I go into a submenu like Favorites or the Mame list itself, there is no artwork. No videos, no snaps, no icons, etc. I am currently running version 12.50. I upgraded to 12.45 via the auto-update feature. This gave me errors, and I believe I have been doing a manual install of the upgrades since then. The upgrade to 12.50 was by the download off the website. I wouldn't mind reinstalling GameEx from scratch, but I don't want to have to go through the configuration again if I can avoid it. I know the three main files I need to backup to avoid this: custominput.ini, data.mdb, and GameEx.ini. There are 1 or 2 others for custom menus or something like that, but I haven't done anything with that I don't think. Finally, the GameEx interface seems to run a bit more poorly now. I get more lag, more jumping in the video snaps, etc. Not sure what is causing all these problems. Should I just go back to version 12.38? Any suggestions for fixing? Thanks. P.S. The last time I launched GameEx I was able to navigate to the Favorites menu and select it. Then I returned to the main menu and scrolled down to Recently Played when it jammed up again. Attached is the log file from this run. log.txt
