Thanks in advance for any help.

I will post the log and .ini files when I get back to my machine, likely tomorrow.

Problems:

1) The MAME menu does not list my ROMs, it only lists Arkanoid, which I do own - but I can't figure why just that one and no other ones. Happily Arkanoid does run, and looks good.

2) In the "Emulated Games" menu, I can find my ROMs listed, but none of them will run - I get a black screen then a bounce back to GameEx

3) I get the same black screen and bounce back when I try to run the GameEx Arcade games.

Hi Feanor1 and Welcome to the GameEx forums!

Thanks for posting your log and your GameEx config. That information makes a big difference when attempting to troubleshoot issues like these. So let's get to it!

1) The MAME menu does not list my ROMs, it only lists Arkanoid, which I do own - but I can't figure why just that one and no other ones. Happily Arkanoid does run, and looks good.

In your GameEx.ini I see that you have MAME configured as a "standard" emulator. You don't want to do that (or at least you would only want to do that under a very specific set of circumstances). MAME holds a "special" status in GameEx, so it has it's own dedicated settings which enable alot of cool MAME-specific functionality. You'll want to configure MAME using the MAME Settings screen in the Setup Wizard.

2) In the "Emulated Games" menu, I can find my ROMs listed, but none of them will run - I get a black screen then a bounce back to GameEx

In your GameEx.ini it looks like your ROM paths are still configured to the default demo paths. For example:

emu_2_rompath=C:\GameEx\DEMO\SNES\video

So I'm guessing that directory still houses the demo videos that came included with GameEx. Further, I'm sure that most any emulator will choke when you try to run it with a video file specified in place of a ROM file. For each of your emulators in GameEx you'll want to first configure them in the Setup Wizard using the Emulator Selection, Emulator Setup and possibly the Advanced Emulator Setup screens.

But ... even that may be getting ahead of ourselves. For any emulator you configure in the Setup Wizard, you'll want to be sure it's running fine on its own outside of GameEx first. Remember that the Setup Wizard is only for configuring GameEx settings, if an emulator is not functioning outside of GameEx the Setup Wizard cannot suddenly make it work for you.

3) I get the same black screen and bounce back when I try to run the GameEx Arcade games.

Would you mind posting another copy of your log immediately after having attempted to run a GameEx Arcade game? For the most part these are just Flash games, so you'll want to make sure that you have an up to date installation of Flash on your machine. You'll also want to verify that the machine has internet access.

Good Luck!

OK, where do I begin:

Item 1: the MAME list does not list my ROMs.

I went to the ROM folder, launched MAME32 from there and got everything to run. I re-opened GameEx and still only Arkanoid was listed.

I reconfigured so that there was no separate MAME emulator in the Emulated Games list. Still only Arkanoid listed.

I downloaded a fresh Flash and still cannot get the GameEx Arcade games to play.

Here is the log:

OK, much better now. I can get a list of games I actually have and can play most of them. This is good enough so that now I can justify putting this computer into my arcade machine and zipping it up.

Thanks to nulPointer.

I suspect I may be back here as I start to spread my wings with more sophisticated emulations.
