Mame startup movie brings up windows start bar
« on: October 10, 2008, 05:24:12 pm »
Hi guys, having a small problem here. When i use a startup video for some reason it brings up the windows taskbar and it will not go away, i have to get the mouse and click on mala for it to bring mala to the front. Anybody else have a similar problem?

use a different program to play video instead of windows media player, right click on avi file and choose program to play it and set as default, I use divx player and have no problem.
