trouble with cpwizard

[kmhamel]

Hello,
I am having trouble with CPWizard.

I ran cpwizard and minimized it.

I than ran mame using hyperlaunch2, which is setup to use cpwizard.

The game comes up and than is instantly minimized and cpwizard brings up the control panel on my second monitor. After about 20 seconds the pic of the control panel goes away. The game is still minimized and I have to manualy maximize the window to play the game.

If I hit pause the game pauses and the pic of the control panel comes back to  my monitor. When I continue the game the control panel stays on the second monitor untill I exit the game and than both go away.

What setting am I missing to stop the game from minimizing? Is there away to set cpwizard so the control panel stays on my second monitor while the game plays, from the very begining instead of going through the pausing steps?

Here is the cpwizard log.

It also does the same thing when I run the game using the preview option in cpwizard.

Well I got the window (game) to stop minimizing when cpwizard starts up. I changed the d3dversion to 8 in the mame.ini. So now when I start the game the game comes up on one monitor, cpwizard comes up on the second monitor, shows for about 20 seconds and then goes away. Now when I press control L to show cpwizard; cpwizard comes up, the game minimizes still. When I exit out of cpwizard the game then mamimizes and is ready to play.
If I click on the game in the task bar to maximize the game while cpwizard is still on the second screen, the game is then ready to play and cpwizard does its thing.

The game only minimizes when cpwizard opens using the control L.

Any help out there?
