thanks stefan. ill give it a try tonight.
whatever is causing the problem, its overriding mames global settings.

anyone?

cant seem to find any rhyme or reason to this problem.

looks to be random, even after i de-selected the force aspect display setting in mame.

im have a rotated monitor, some games run fine and full screen. others seem 'pinched' and have a black border on the sides. the 194x games for example. running directly from mame32 fixes this.

im sure im missing something painfully easy.

please help!

love,

jas

i got it.

its in the preferences screen.......


of course it is......


told you i was an idiot

I cant for the life of me find the ' show available roms only'  button.

put me out of my misery please

ps.

mgalaxy is great, LOVE the clean interface. just wish it wouldnt show me 11 millions roms (most of which i dont have)
