Title: Hi all my name is Lastrega, Need some help:)
Post by: lastrega on May 20, 2011, 12:36:23 am
Greetings everyone, My name is Lastrega, I finished building my new cab a little over two weeks ago........ I had NO problems on the actual cab build, in fact it was fun and easy, I used pretty nice stuff...... dual core cpu 2.5 ghz, nvidia 9600gt...... tons of ram ect..... anyway when it came time to a FE , I first used mala, (only because it was a cocktail) but pretty it aint........ So then I switched to Hyperspin...... (Sorry to Hyperspin fans) but, it may look great, but looks aint everything........... I had so many bugs  like solid black fonts, to randomly crashing at will, that I decided mari was too good for that...... I then then shelled out the 25 bucks for maximus .........Great FE not the best looking, but had EVERY FEATURE I wanted mari to have....... Only problem......... No support..... And I mean no support...... Been over a week and I can't even post on thier forum..... I see he really cares about the folks that BUY his software.....Anyway....... Still like maximus , but What I need help is that I rotated my monitor to CCW for my jukebox and mame to work correctly on my cocktail to view right..... I have maximus set at 1024*720 horizontal   ( the reason is that Maximus assumes ALL cocktails have player 1 to the left and their is no verticle CCW resolutions......Anyway........ the problem is now my screen is tiny on the main selection( So question is "Can I get a verticle resolution to fit in horizontal mode?"         Hit me up with any feedback plz:) and thanks........ Next question I will start a new post ......Lastrega  P.S Here are some pics of Mari, ( my cab) nevermind the dates, put batts in my camera and it reset the date:) those were taken on april 27th.......... PSS Mari is the biggest cocktail (to date ) ever built.........30" inches hight (table hieght.........and 32" led screen)  Biggest till Mari was a 26 inch in england........ so HA mates........

Though not directly related to your problem, you probably should double check your ram and video card to make sure something isn't going bad with them. Those two problems you were having with HS sound suspicious.
