Mame exits back to Maximus, which is unresponsive at 100% CPU
« on: December 07, 2017, 06:23:11 pm »
I have an X-Arcade cabinet that has developed the following problem:  if you start a MAME game under Maximus, after some amount of time (> 10 mins) it will exit back to Maximus, which will be unresponsive to tankstink (and usually) the keyboard.  If you check Task Manager you'll see Maximus is CPU bound.

Has anyone encountered this?  It means rebooting (or using Task Manager to kill and restart Maximus.  The Mame process is long gone at that point, why I don't know).
