Hi have had my cabinet for a while and decided to change the layout of my buttons,so here's the prob I go in to mame's general settings (using the tab key) change what I want the buttons to do and it's fine but when I leave the game I'm playing and start a diff one they have reset to what they where bebofe in short they are not saving, don't remember having this prob before so any help would be great,I'm using a control board from ultracabs if that helps not an I-PAC also I keep getting 2 buttons showing up as BUTTON 9 ??

what happens if you play a game you have never played before?  If you have customized any in game control settings, there could be a .cfg file for the game you are playing that is overriding the default mame config.  If you select a game you have not played before and it works as it should, then you need to delete the contents of your cfg folder to clear any game specific configurations

Hoopz:

Also make sure your folders aren't read-only.  Windows has a few quirks like that...

Thanks for the info I'll have a go at the weekend one question though, do I just delete the cfg file?? Thought I had better check first
