right! i have set it up a treat ! the pc powers up to mamewah as the shell in 10 seconds !! but on exit i want it to load wincab... if i press '2' 'exit mamewah' it loads wincab but i want to be able to press esc and get wincab up. also how to i get back to mamewah after wincab as there is no windows no nothing once wincab is shut as mamewah was the shell, i don't want to have to do this the windows way ! |

Also note this will only work when your Mame list is selected, UNLESS you repeat step 1 for each of your emulator.ini files. Hope that helps! |
