Front End Support > Maximus Arcade

Please help -- all I ever get is a black screen!

(1/1)

FingerCramp:
Ok, I have MAME32 and a bunch of ROMs and things run OK.  But the interface sucks.

So I plop down some money for Maximus Arcade, and things don't work at all.

I'm running Windows 7.
MAME32 v0.99
Maximus Arcade (MAX 2.10)

Maximus came all configured for my X-Arcade, apparently, which I thought was nice.

Maximus starts up, and I get a long list of games (corresponding to my games).  I select a game, and all I get is a black screen. 
The same games that will work if I launch them through MAME32 directly don't work when launched via Maximus Arcade.

As far as I can tell I've got it configured correctly (but perhaps not?!?).

Ideas?  Please?

Titchgamer:
If its been "pre configured" i would say its not configured right.

Check all the directories for mame, roms etc

What I meant by "pre-configured" is that it seems to be already set up for my X-Arcade Tankstick.

The path to the executable is correct.  The path to the roms is correct (and it correctly finds the ROMs).  But like I said, when I select a game, it briefly says "Please Wait" and then the screen goes black and stays black.  :(

I can't for the life of me figure out what might be wrong.  Is there a log file I can look at?  What's a good way to troubleshoot this?

Titchgamer:
Possibly resolution settings?
Check that the resolutions on your PC, Maximus etc all correlate.

Other than that I cant think of anything ATM.

To early in the morning :p
