How can I gurantee no Mame games are rotated when starting?

Tiger-Heli:
What type of monitor? (I.e. is it an arcade monitor and maybe you have the inputs swapped, or a rotated monitor, and you have should be using rol=1 to rotate the games to vertical?)  Wouldn't make some work and others not, though . . .

When I added "-norotate 1" then the disclaimer and menu text were straight up/down .... which is nice, but the 005 was then tilted sideways in the other direction.

Just to make myself clear ......  most games are perfectly fine ..... meaning they display striaght up/down like I want them, but I noticed some games (ie: 005 is one of them) which start off sideways.   I have not checked many other games yet, so I am not sure if there are more .... but I would expect there to be some more.

What version of MAME?  Are horizontal games fine and vertical games rotated, or are most horizontal and vertical games fine, and 005 and some others are messed up?

I am currently setting up MameWah1.62b9, so I am strictly on my computer trying to set everything up.  I have a Samsung flatscreen.  I am using command line Mamev103

The 005 game is just one I noticed was sideways since it was listed near the top of the list.

Maybe you can provide me with a list of some horizontal games and some vertical games to check and I will look to see if the horizontal ones are sideways.

I'll bet it's an intel chipset.

I had to install a new video card. Doesn't seem to be able to be resolved through software switches.

P.S. I love your jukebox software!
