Autoupdate

[JohnnyG]

Hi,

Need a little help, please (at least I hope it's only a little!).

Yesterday, GameEx prompted me to update, but I couldn't get it to, so today I switched autoupdate on, and it downloaded and installed the update, but I keep getting an error

Process id=0x17c (380), Thread id=0xff4 (4084)

It's an old-ish PC, but it runs well enough for me to build a cab around it when I get the money together for a new PC. Also GameEx won't run if I swith resoultion above 800x600 in the Config: I don't really care about this though, it looks cool in 640x480.

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks,

JohnnyG

The solution should be to go to the GameEx web site, and manually download and install the latest version. The resolution issue is probably due to your old PC hardware.

Hi Tom,

Yeah, I'm just about to do that. What files will I need to keep to keep my favourites, configs, and most importantly, my high scores! Don't tell me I've lost my Black Tiger high score (still there after a solid month of my best mate button bashing!)

Thanks,

You shouldn't loose anything, one of the great things about GameEx is its installation and auto upgrade. Just install over the top of your existing install.

Tom

PS: The high scores are stored in MAME not GameEx

Hi

Just reinstalled the new version as Tom said: jobs a good 'un! High score still intact, and favorites, most played, etc. I love GameEx!
