I think you should be able to use the space bar?  You can also configure the rotation to a specific keys.  Try looking at the Doc file that comes with ArcadeOS,  I believe it should help you out.

Thanks all,

Silly me, I forgot to tell MAME to rotate the screen as well as arcadeOS,
Note to self "there are two config files now"  ;)

I am 75% done on my cabinet, got the PC inside and running, just got to build the control panels now, got some pic's of the build and will set a website so anyone else whos building can hopefully get a few ideas.

Thanks for the link, I am interested in the compaq's for 95 quid, any more deatails..?
