How to bring up game selection window after exiting a game??

HanoiBoi:

Wow, I hate posting a question like this, but I’m running a little short on my trial period…

My MAME cab recently lost its hard drive and I’ve built it up again from scratch.  I’m looking into Maximus Arcade as a Front End.  I like most of what I’ve seen, but I can’t quite figure this out; when I’m in a game, I want to exit the game and go back to the game selection menu.  When I press my 1P and 2P Start buttons simultaneously, it closes the game as I’m expecting, but it doesn’t quite get me back to the menu.  Instead, I’m shown a blank screen. 

From here, I can press Ctrl+Alt+Del and it basically flushes through and then the game selection screen appears (along with Task Manager, of course).

Do I have something configured wrong?  How can I exit the game and (quickly) display the game selection menu?

I would try holding your P1+P2 start buttons for about 3 seconds or so. I remember having to do this for one of my button combinations. Hope this helps.

postmortem:
make sure scroll lock and num lock are off when you exit the game and you shouldnt have an issue

HanoiBoi:
Thanks for the ideas guys.  Unfortunately, neither solved my issue.

postmortem:
the only time mine does this is if i exit the game using escape. I have mine set so holding start for 5 seconds exits the game and if i exit that way i never have any problems.
