monitor refresh problem..help!
« on: July 28, 2003, 04:03:04 pm »
alright, i have an AOC 19" monitor for my cab, and have the resolution set to 1024x768...first of all, do i need my resolution set this high?  will all the games look properly with a lower res.?  anyway, when i have it on the 1024 res, after i close mamewah, and exit to windows (98 SE) it messes up the screen, and kinda moves the screen up about an inch, so the My Computer icon is halfway off the screen.  i dont know why its doing this.  anybody help me here?

In versions of mamewah prior to version .953 there was a bug
where it would change the refresh rate to 60hz on exit. I don't know
if it was all OS's or just some but that may be the problem.  The newest
beta fixes that issue.
