I am running a optiplex 733 with 256ram windows xp, and a ati Rage128 everything loads fine but when I select 1 in my mame Ini file for ddraw needed for stretching the image to full screen the game does not load.
using mamewah and commandline mame95

It could be a few things.
first, remove the d3d and use hwstretching to 1. This SHOULD attempt to stretch to the same resolution.
If this doesn't work. Then its probably the resolution your monitor doesn't like (MAME is trying to stretch 320x200 -> 640x400 because of exact stretching.... But your monitor can't handle it.... Or whatever)... Try forcing a resolution you KNOW will work (640x480, 800x600, ect) and try again...
or
use hwstretching. Some video cards do MUCH better with it (based on opengl instead of d3d)

this is my mame.ini file the monitor is set at 800x600 but I am using pivot pro to make it vertical. using a ati rage128, optiplex gx110 , windows xp pro and mamewah as my FE
