ok, installed mamewah and got mame working fine.  I was tweaking different settings and setting up different layouts.  After I got things how I wanted it I saved it and turned off my computer.  Now today when I run mamewah I get the error box popping up saying "runtime error '7' out of memory" with an OK button beneath it, my screen is then screwed up and my mouse becomes invisible.

Ive looked through all my mamewah settings and dont see anything wrong.  I went as far as to delete my mamewah directory and reinstalled it.  I'm lost is there anyone that can help me straighten this out?

ok, I've been researching this problem nonstop since I posted and found this http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000375.htm

It says the error I found could be caused by a few things, all of which Ive checked and double checked.  I'm running a pentium 4 with 3.2 ghz, 1 Gig of ram, radeon 9600 video card and have free right now 200gigs of hard drive space.  so I meet all the system requirements (heck I exceed them all by a longshot).  Rebooting the computer doesnt work, reinstalling the program doesnt work.  I'm lost

Win 98?

windows xp

Ok, found an answer just incase this ever pops up again.  I updated xp upto date, service pack 2 ect and that fixed it instantly, apparently mamewah isnt all that backwards compatible :)

I've been running on XP Service Pack 1 until very recently so it should have worked ok.  It could be when you upgraded it altered some drivers or something which fixed the problem.
