Ok i have created a new config file and added the changes you listed plus also HLSL enabled. I am now greeted with the following error message......
Also the modeline you listed had an error in, just incase anyone else was going ti use it...
26000.00-68000.00,48.00-0.00,0.636,3.813,1.906,0.318,0.064,1.048,0,0,1080,1080 (WRONG)
26000.00-68000.00,48.00-60.00,0.636,3.813,1.906,0.318,0.064,1.048,0,0,1080,1080 (CORRECT)
EDIT
Found out why, i needed the HLSL folder with the .fx file in. But now when i load a rom, i just get a black screen for a while and then different coloured screens slowly coming up, if i press '5' for credit the screen stops changing colour now and again and goes straight to a black screen again!!
Calamity:
You need the hlsl folder and the artwork folder too, download mainstream MAME and grab the folders from there, hopefully it's that.
Thanks, I fixed the modeline in case someone used it.

mk runs at 54 Hz...
Try by changing your values from 48.00-60.00 to 55.00-60.00 or so until you find the right ones where your TV works fine.

It seem to be working now at 48.00-60.00, it must have been because i was test the desktop res set to 720p and not 1080p. Isnt it better to have my desktop res as low as possible to get a more authentic arcade look??
Regarding the 48.00-60.00 value i take it this is refering to the refresh rate that the LCD accepts? So what happens to roms that have a lower refresh than 48??
EDIT: Tried MK 1,2, and 3 all work fine, but mk 4 give me the mode not supportted bu my LCD. What Hz's does MK4 run at?
