Calamity I got one for ya
On my windows 7 ultimate machine, hd5850 cat ver 12.3 and latest version of Gmame, HLSL causes mame to crash with this error text

D:\Hyperspin\Emulators\Mame>mame mk

Unable to complete window creation

any idea's?
this setup works fine on my cab with WinXP X64 with hd4890 + your drivers

"EDIT"
and i figured it out, it was an ID-10T error, however it does still give the SwitchRes: Failed opening DefaultVideo registry error is that because i'm not using your drivers?
