Can't get Donkey Kong to work?

Guys I cannot for the life of me get Donkey Kong to work.  I have the dkong.zip and when I run the program, my monitor goes funky like white and I can kind of hear some sounds, but it will just not display properly.  I have also tried to use dkongo.zip as well.  I have the .106 version of Mame.  Anyone else get the Donkey Kong to work?

Thanks

Yeah - works here. Have you tried a different version of mame? On a different machine? Are you outputing to a lcd, monitor, tv or arcade monitor?
rdowdy95:
I am outputting to a Viewsonic VA521 15inch LCD Monitor.  In the next couple of months I am building a cabniet with a 27 inch Sharp TV with components and S-Video.  But for now I am using an LCD.  I can hear the sounds when I start a game, but the video is totally weird my LCD just starts to fade with weird lines to white color.

Any chance you can try it on a standard monitor or television?

Some LCD's have a hard time changing to different resolutions.

I can't do anything about it right now, but you sound correct.  Sometimes when I boot the computer on.  I shouldn't say sometimes it happens all the time.  I get the same effect for like a second or two when booting up Windows.  Tommorow I will go out in the gararge I got a sucky old CRT monitor in there somewhere, and I will check it out.  Thanks for the help man!
