THANK YOU, whammoed. It was the hardware stretching. It was driving me nuts, (not hard to do). I changed every available option with no results. (MAME32 btw) The card that was in at the time, and the one other I tried at the time didn't support it. I didn't notice that the first 2 did. I also notice that one more card I was gonna chuck, supports it, and with it selected, caused slow down. Now without it on, it works fine, and has a tv out, (hmmmm, to move tv, or to move computer.) I know this all might seem simple to some out there, but I am new to all the specific details of mame . I have ALOT of computer parts lying around, and some extra cabs. I thought I might be able to put together 2 or 3 mame systems, for only the price of the ipacs.
Thanks Again! Your help is appreciated!
