Title: Dos or Windows shortcut key problem--Help!
Post by: nakeworks on December 20, 2010, 08:56:41 am

 :banghead:

I'm trying to play NBA jam and dunk when my screen rotates 90degrees.  After some experimenting I get the screen back to the way it should be. Turns out that when I press Player 1 Button 1 and 2 at same time and move Player 1 joystick in a direction, it rotates the screen.  This is equivalent to Ctrl + Alt + (up, down, left, right).  This happens in Mame, my front end, and when I am not even in a program looking at my XP desktop.  It also happens on a regular keyboard when i put it through the ipac.  How do I turn this off?  :angry:

iether, change it thru the Video setting and siable HOT KEYS, or change the Controls  (CTRL, ALT) thru MAME config (TAB, GENERAL).

Got it!  I did see that I had to do Properties-Settings-Advanced-Graphics Properties-Disable Hot Keys.  Thanks Thenasty.  :notworthy:

I was going to ask whether you weren't sure which OS you were using....

Also, do us favor and mark the thread as 'solved'.
