Title: PNG - bad image file, snapshots not visible
Post by: wickie on March 21, 2006, 11:27:58 pm

For some reason the snapshots dont show up (PNG files)
Mamelog shows error-message like bad image file.
I dont have this problem with WinXP, but when i ported all to my Win98SE machine i cant get the snapshots to show up....

Can someone help me out ? Thanks.

I presume you are having this problem with a FE?  If so, which one?  If Mamewah, ensure you have installed the system files...

Could you post the relevant part of your mamewah.log?

Found the problem;
i used the system files installer but there seem to be a problem with installing paintX.dll so i had to do this manually.
All work flawless now.

Thanks for all the help!
