mame .78 full screen problems
david656:
well hardware stretch or no hardware stretch it does absolute jack sh*t ! thanks for the suggestion ! but there is something extremly odd about the set up.
its a IBM T21 and as some may know only 800mhz P3 so a older mame is necessary, mamewah loads up ok and full screen but mame doesn't, when i change resolution from auto to 800x600 most of the games get err bigger ! but still no where near full screen ! and do you know whats really wierd ! i load the same games on my desktop PC using the same version of mame and its full screen ! now thats anoying
please help !

No, what I mean was "Are you using a TV, or an arcade monitor, or an LCD, or a computer monitor?" ;D
david656:
well 20" CRT TV and a 13" laptop LCD i supose, s-video out that is black and white !
its all fun
thanks for your help

I had the same issue sometimes.
What fixed it was playing with the flags for ddraw and direct3d
(I think set it to 1 and 0, respectively, but I could
be wrong).
Also, with a CRT your max resolution should only
be limited to 640x480. With your LCD (what are
you using, switchable monitors?), depends but
probably a lot higher.
david656:
its a laptop and as its a cloned desktop both are 800x600
only problem for me is if i lower everything to 640x480 i gotta redesign my custom mamewah skin which i don't really wanna do..... i mean the newer mame is slow when playing the games but does play them full screen..
humm i will look into your comment thanks
