Hello everyone,
I am experiencing issues with MAME opening on my marquee screen instead of my main display and was wondering if anyone could help. I’ve been at this for days now.
I have run mame -v and it states :
Video: Monitor 131073 = "\\.\DISPLAY1"
Video: Monitor 131122 = "\\.\DISPLAY2" (primary)
In Windows my main display is "Display 1" and the marquee screen is "Display 2."
I have changed the OSD Per-Window Video Options:
screen0 to \\.\DISPLAY1
screen1 to \\.\DISPLAY2
[didn't work]
I tried changing screen to \\.\DISPLAY1
[didn't work]
screen to \\.\DISPLAY1
screen0 to \\.\DISPLAY1
screen1 to \\.\DISPLAY2
[didn't work and even reversed the 1's and 2's]
How do I go about making MAME (0.262) run on my primary screen? It seems like I have done the hard part (hours of studying how to fix and I know what MAME sees the screens as) but I still can't get MAME running on Display 1 and Marquee on Display 2. Even when I turn off the second display MAME still tries to open on the second display(in "auto").
Might have to give up the marquee screen because I can not figure this out.
Any help would be welcomed!

Have you tried switching the cables?
