MaLa - Error reading game list file
« on: July 20, 2007, 05:41:13 pm »
I stupidly shut the computer down by turning it off at the wall, not through software. On the next power up, I got this message!! Now mala wont start.

I should point out that I'm running my front end as a shell

Please please.......How do I fix it!!

Thanks in advance

I would take your FE away as the shell and put back to explorer so you can sort it out first.

Many thanks, got it sorted. (sort of cheated really) I had a ghosted version of my H.D, so just copied the MaLa file across and now it all good.
