Setting up for Win7, LCD, and Nvidia Card??
lettuce:
This is the log file from screen res set to 1280x720 and gave me a no signal display on the LCD
lettuce:
Think ive sorted it, by pressing F10 which according to mame is for throttle now the game is saying its running at 100%.
Do you have any experience with this throttle option in mame, and is it messing with any of the modified settings in groovymame??

Only the height values, so last two values should be changed from 1080 to the height of the resolution you're using.

To be honest I don't know... could be. I have no experience messing with modelines through HDMI, but it makes sense some restrictions might be applied. Currently I'm using VGA or DVI-I in all my screens.

You see, it's not accepting the dotclocks we are trying to set:
PStrip: ps_set_monitor_timing(0): 1280,110,40,220,720,5,5,20,67783,512
PStrip: ps_get_monitor_timing(0): 1280,110,40,220,720,5,5,20,74251,512
PStrip: ps_set_monitor_timing(0): 1280,110,40,220,720,5,5,20,67808,512
PStrip: ps_get_monitor_timing(0): 1280,110,40,220,720,5,5,20,74251,512
PStrip: ps_set_monitor_timing(0): 1280,110,40,220,720,5,5,20,67833,512
... so the issue seems to affect other resolutions.
And this is the first part of the problem. The second part is to find out which vertical refresh ranges your TV admits and can faithfully reproduce.

Yes, if you press enable throttle you'll get 100%, but that's cheating, what we try to do is to use our videocard's refresh as the throttling method.
