Title: Frontend fits but MAME doesn't?
Post by: EndTwist on August 03, 2003, 08:55:49 pm

I'm working on setting up the computer & monitor for my cocktail cabinet, but I have this odd problem. When I run my frontend @ 640x480 (rotated), it fits the screen perfectly. When I run the emulator, there is a very thick black border around it now. It seems that the emulator is at a different resolution or something. I don't know whats wrong?

Sounds like you need to make an/some INI files to specify the resolution to run at - take a look at www.mameworld.net/easyemu if you need help doing this...
