Trouble with Kega Fusion
« on: June 16, 2010, 04:09:23 pm »
So over the past year I have have been having this odd problem of my kega fusion emulator resetting all of my settings on me.  Every once and a while I would try and play a genesis game on my cabinet and my button configuration of kega would be reset to default or I would try and play a Sega CD game and I would get and error message saying that the emulator can not find my BIOS files.  So every time it does this I have get out the mouse and keyboard and reconfigure the buttons to match my cabinet, locate the Bios files ect, ect, which starts to get a little old after a while.  I started using Gens for genesis and 32x emulation but I would rather be using kega if I can.  Has anyone had a problem like this using Kega?  I have tried downloading different versions and such, and every time I think I have the problem fixed, but a week or so later all of my setting are reset to default.  Oddly enough this is the only emulator that has this problem.  All of the other emulators have stored my settings the entire time I have had my cabinet.  Anyone have any ideas or something I could try?

I'd say try deleting the fusion.ini file and creating a new one. Aside from that, the place where Kega resides on might have bad sectors. Try testing your hard drive, if you can.

the emulator propenty not have write rights on that place you have placed the emulator in. The emulator can propenty not save the file correctly as Frigo wrote.

Thanks for the help.  Ill try saving kega to a different place in my hard drive and see if that helps and Ill definitely make a copy of the fusion.ini file so if my settings do get erased i can just copy the ini file back into fusion and save myself some time.

This happened to me last night and the suggestion posted makes no sense if all the other emulators are on the same drive. I have not discovered a reason for this.  All I did differently was add some sega cd roms and rescan in Maximus Arcade.
