You know you can map functions within mame to require two or more keys right?  I mean that's the better way to do it unless you really need that 4 second delay or something.

I have always found autoit perfect for such things (in case the front end does not support custom key combinations).

I managed to fix it with Rocketlauncher setting it up with a 4 sec delay
the 4 sec delay didn't work because I mapped the same keys in Mame Ui cancel which immediately shuts mame down
thanks guys
