Bill Mote:

If you're using a dedicated box to play on then you might consider setting MameWAH as your shell.  That will eliminate all the normal M$ winders headaches.  In the event you need something from windows you can always CTRL-ALT-DEL and from the task manager run explore.exe.

Do you mean the taskbar is still in front of MAMEWAH?

1) Make sure you aren't running anything un-neccessary in the background that might nick focus (check Startup and msconfic > startup)

2) Try a different desktop resolution or MAMEWAH resolution

3) Failing that, try my next release.  I'm hiding the taskbar now and I've added/altered some code to try and stop MW from losing focus...

MAMEWAH is now in front, but I'm still having to make a mouse click to make it active so that I can move through the game menu and pick games....

Wiss:

Is it possible to map a button to Alt-Tab to cycle to the Mamewah window?  That might eliminate the need for a mouse.  Of course I've never played with it so take the above with a grain of salt.
