My 4 year old broke my MAME...
« on: October 24, 2015, 10:39:10 pm »
No lie,
Had a bunch of kids over tonight, playing pinball, air hockey, and my MAME arcade.  My little one was play '88 Games and started serious button mashine.  Somehow she was popping up DOS boxes, closed those, and then when I tried to select a game they were missing...

The gamelists are still there, but when selected, instead of seeing games listed, I see:
Controls
Genre
Manufacturer
Players
Year

Version is 1.74, haven't updated in a while as all was good and I was a happy man.

I tried messing with the gamelists but no go.  Don't want to do too much as I'll likely make it worse.  I'm sure this is some setting that I'm unaware of, I don't go into configuration too often.

Help?
