Null DC / CCS64 Setup Advice

[kingb33]

hi greatflash

well i followed the instructions again 100% with no luck....again, i can hear the emulator in the background playing but the screen is all black.

[Emulator_10]

Enabled=True

STARTPAGENAME=Commodore 64

TITLETEXT=Commodore 64

StartPageLogo=c64

ROMFilter=*.zip

RomsInFolders=True

RomPath=C:\Program Files\GameBase\games

ShowMostPlayed=

RandomMostPlayed=

CDCheck=

CDCheckFile=

lastgame=

if i go back and change this:

ShowDesktop=False

> True

I can see the game in a window and and it runs like 10FPS through GameEx.

******OUTSIDE GameEX CCS64 runs full screen perfectly fine with no problems at all.

It must have something to do thats unique to my PC.

Like I said i have the same exact problem with Future Pinball as well.......so there's something about those 2 particular emulators that is causing this. All my other emulators are fine.
