I've been setting things up for months with the CFG files, and have found it to be easy. The PC and Daphne emulators were the first I struggled with. I wasn't sure what number corresponded to ROM Path only or the show DOS box. I kept changing it one by one and hoping to fix it - to no avail until I altered it within Mamewah. |

I agree that things are much easier to figure out when using the Mamewah menus. It's a great program you've developed. Is there a way to get the PC programs to launch from Mamewah without the taskbar and a separate window popping up? I'd like it to launch like my other emulators do, without indicating that it's running off of XP. Thank you. |

You could try switching 'Show DOS Box' to No, although some programs do require it - try it and see. Failing that you could try using BAT files instead of LNK shortcuts to launch your programs. (Please don't ask me about batch files ::) ) |
