I didn't try it with Mame, Windows only. Window would only allow those resolutions.

That's weird. Every resolution for whichever setting you chose in Soft15Khz should show up in Windows display settings or Quickres. So if you chose 15Khz in Soft15Khz, you should see 256x240, 321x240, 321x256 etc. etc.

I couldn't use QuickRes because I didn't have a mouse hooked up. But when I looked in display properties (all modes) there were only four resolutions listed.

The windows display panel will only display resolutions down to 800x600 in XP, and I believe 640x480 in 98. To access those lower, 15khz Mame resolutions, you will HAVE TO use a program like Quickres.
Well, you'll need it to manually change to those resolutions. You can always write specific ini's for your games that tell Mame what res to launch the game in.

I went into advanced options to display all available modes.

It still won't display those lower resolutions in the windows display panel.
Trust me, you have to have something like Quickres to manually change to resolutions lower than 640x480.
