I just recently got Gameex working with an IPAC and all the games I have tested play perfectly for a few minutes and then just stop and return to the Gameex menu.

This happens with PacMan, Galaga and 3 or 4 others.

I am running a P2.4mhz with a Nvidia 6800GT using the monitor rotation feature in Gamex.

Any ideas ?

Sure.

Make sure you have no running programs in backround... example Antivirus....

I checked it out, nothing like that running, interestingly if I manually run mame, the games run perfectly and will go on endlessly, so it appears to be only in GAME.

It almost seems like a time-out, but I didnt see anything like that mentioned.

I pulled the 6800 and replaced with ArcadeVGA and it does the same.

Probably not going to be this, but I had a time when my two wires connecting my coin mech were touching which then made my 5 button also register as ESC. It puzzled me for a while, so perhaps you should check your wiring. There is a program on this form I think called KeyHook or something that will show you what keys are being pressed. Something to try anyway.
