cheers bud,
i'm on windows 7 and can't see an alternative method.
so do i need to edit the mame cfg folder instead on mame.ini?
it seems to be in order already. rompath is correct....

I'M LOOKING FOR A NEW GAME TO TRY OUT. WHAT DO YOU ALL SUGGEST?
i only play a handfull of games from the eighties. any suggestions would be welcomed.
cheers!!

hi skito, thanks alot. all i have in the main mame folder is mame (application), and mame (configuration settings) when i open the mame config one it has the details i believe should be in the mame.ini. like rom path etc. should it be renamed? or have i done something wrong previously to have what i...

(i did actually type playback, but it went to the game) funny, i can't get it to work again today yet! i have tried to edit the ini file, and failed. when opening in notepad, all i see is the e...

hello again, good tip! my mames are all on my external hard drive. drive E. so you see, your instructions which are obviously correct are wasted on me, even from the beginning!! is this a problem in itself to not have it on the c drive? all the other gui's on there work perfectly. everything i type ...

thanks you guys, you're the best.
i will have a crack later on.
now maybe my last ever game of phoenix. just thinking about it gives my ears goosebumps!!!

drama!!

ok,
i opened a command prompt, entered the first line, and it said "the syntax of the command is incorrect".
i copy/pasted your direction...
my mind is twisting with turmoil, and am getting subconciously violent!!!!
lol!

barry, thank you very much indeed for your detailed response. unfortunately, i am not pc literate and am stumped at the first instruction!! "open a command prompt" i do not even know what that is. i have only ever used a gui version, so i have no clue about anything else. i have read and c...

do i type command line in the windows search bar at bottom left?
i have never read where to type it, there is nowhere else....
cheers!
