Hi cnells, does this happen on all your emulators? And does it happen when you run affected emulators outside of GameEx. Do you have any 3rd party screen rotation software installed? It could also be "feature" of your GPU. I personally am not aware of this key combo and wouldn't have thought GameEx had the power to rotate your game screen.

You can of course rotate GameEx itself in the settings but again am not aware of any key combo for it.

Hello cnells2000,

I had this on my bartop/ weecade too.... but this has nothing to do with GameEx. In my case, it was the Intel onboard-graphics-systemproperties. So i would check the Properties for your Graphics-card and look if shortcuts are enabled. In my case, there where shortcuts activated by default and caused the rotary-trouble. Just check if you maybe have the same setting activated.... I am pretty sure, it has to do with this .

Good Luck

Well it only happened in mame as of rt now. Im going to try different emus today. The reason why i didnt post a log file is bc i know its a windows issue too. I know the shortcuts and how to fix it back upright again. But it can get kinda annoying playing street fighter and if i accidentally press ctrl, alt, and any direction. The screen would flip. Then i have to pause, flip t back, and resume. Im going to look in the display settings for shortcut disable in the graphic options. Never seen nuthin like that tho ever..

I do have a section for intel onboard graphics options though...

yeah, thats where you need to look at. if you dont have a intel-onboard-graphics systemproperties-panel, i would recommend to download the newest available at intel download center. as the shortcuts are on by default, it is highly your issue with the rotating in MAME.

like i said, i had this problem too and this solved it.
