Title: MAME32? Losing Tab key... ?
Post by: NatasNJ on August 09, 2003, 07:28:31 pm

When I install MAME32 (.71) everything seems to work fine.  Then after a few days I seem to lose the ability to use the tab key in the menus..   ANyone know what can be causing this?  It has happened 2-3 time already...

Going to delete EVERYTHING.  Reinstall newest version.  And see what happens.  And see when I can pinpoint this problem if it happens again.  

Ideas?  Thoughts?  Suggestions?

Delete default.cfg from your cfg folder.  Fixes everything.

someone changed the menu key to another key, so your .cfg had to be deleted to reset the assignments.

That makes sense.  But the problem is No one did change the key!  Unless it happened under complete random chance.  (Under each set of installs)

Just seems weird....   Thanks for the help guys....
