Games do not load when clicking "Play This Game"

[jmoceri]

When I click "Play This Game" on any of the games within GameEX, The screen flashes to a black screen and then just returns to the game preview screen...it never loads. Not sure if there is some setting that I have to change or something else I have to download to get it to work. The GameEX Arcade games will load, but MAME and Emulator games will not.

This is what the Log File says when I try to load a game:

20:18:46.0 3/21/2013: Running: cmd.exe /c C: GENS+.exe "C:\Roms\Sega Genesis\Roms\Sonic and Knuckles (W) [h1C].gen"

20:18:48.9 3/21/2013: Reloading Game Info Page

20:18:49.0 3/21/2013: Returning to GameEx

Not sure how to interpret this, but if someone knows what the problem may be, please let me know. Thanks!

Hi jmoceri, and welcome to the GameEx forums!

Our standard advice for troubleshooting is to post a copy of the emulator config that seems to be giving you issues, and a copy of your log after having experienced the problem. You can refer to the How to Ask For Help Thread for instructions on how to do that.

Problems like these can be caused by a whole multitude of issues, so looking at your specific configuration will help us to tailor troubleshooting advice to your specific situation. Otherwise we're just shouting out random advice which can sometimes be worse than no advice at all.

Thanks man!
