The one that matches your controls/needs/wants.   ::)

Default settings are a good start, but there is no one-size-fits-all configuration.

What are you trying to do and what controls/hardware are you using to do it?

i.e. I keep bumping the spinner during a trackball game and it interferes with precise trackball control.
(The answer to that is multimouse    1)

1.  Not sure what you mean by that.   :dizzy:    :dunno    :dizzy:

2.  We have no idea what type of monitor/display, graphics card, etc. you have unless you tell us.   ::)

Nothing for you to be sorry about.   :cheers:

I'm just trying to help you post the information that the experts need to know in order to help you.
(Protip: See the first line of Calamity's sig in the quote below.)

1. Do you have a manufacturer name/model for "Arcade monitor 15.7"?

If not, please post pictures of the label(s) on the tube and chassis -- someone will probably be able to identify it.

2. How is the monitor connected to the onboard video? (15-pin VGA?)

3. What is the problem that you're trying to fix.

- Is there no picture on the monitor?

- Is the display on the monitor scrambled/not syncing?

- Does it work for some games, but not for others?  Which ones?

- Is the picture size/resolution wrong?

If you're not sure how to describe what's wrong, post pictures or video.

4. Post a log file using the process that Calamity outlines in his sig.

Important note: posts reporting GM issues without a log will be IGNORED.
Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead or pasting it.
