im having trouble updating my chd files, i put chdman and kinst2.chd in the same folder. i double click chdman a window pops up for a sec and then goes away real quick.. cant really tell what it said it was a command prompt type screen. and the rom still doesnt work, am i doing this wrong? |

Man, you kids today with your point-and-click interfaces. Waaaay before PAC, we had the command line. For the most part, MAME is a command line program (that happens to have a GUI offshoot) Open a command prompt and change to the directory in question. Type in 'chdman' and it will tell you how to convert. |
