Re: running 5.5 and can't find the rom DB file

No problem at all.  You've earned it.  mGalaxy is a great front end.

To be honest, I should have upgraded long ago.

Re: running 5.5 and can't find the rom DB file

A quick follow-up question...

Is there somewhere I can pick up V6.0 to see if that will work for me?

I tried the latest version and it won't launch in my Win 7 environment. Saw another thread about that and I'm already on Service Pack 1 with the patch, so it's probably something else screwy that ...

Re: running 5.5 and can't find the rom DB file

That is extremely helpful. Thank you!

So now, I guess, the question is do I want to upgrade my version of mGalaxy or down-grade my version of MAME.

In either case, you've given me actionable advice that I can follow.

Re: running 5.5 and can't find the rom DB file

By the way, it is perfect legit to say, "Get your head out of 2014.  Your versions are too old and you need to upgrade."

I have half a mind to do just that, but again, it's mostly working so I hate to muck with it.

Thanks for the help in any case.

running 5.5 and can't find the rom DB file

Ok. I know I'm running an old version here, but it's in a cabinet that's all set up running windows 7, and if it ain't broke I hate to muck with it.

However, I'd like to edit the names of a few games, and I'm having a dickens of a time finding the rom database file.

I can generate the DB in Runway ...
