A single beep from the motherboard.. and then slowdown

Tiger-Heli,
I have run into the same issue. Having Joystick=1 without a joystick plugged in can cause strange keyboard issues. In my case it was like up and left would get stuck on.
Truz,
Like TH said, Try comparing your mame.ini and mame.cfg files to see if there are any settings that are different. If there are, that might be the one that is screwing things up.

But when i went to go try out dos mame in mamewah (see if that might cause a problem) i am having trouble. Mamewah sees all my roms and displays all of the artwork but when i go to launch a game the loading box comes up and it locks up there. The whole computer freezes and i have to restart. Its weird, the game wont load and it locks up on the loading box. Whats the deal

That's your crappy 98ME OS for ya.... I had that problem even on 98SE from time to time. Once I switched to XP, I haven't had Mamewah lock up on me ever.
Truz:
yea but when i was using windows command line with mamewah i never had mamewah lock up on me (only had that annoying beeping problem. Now when i use dos mame with mamewah the games will not even load. I checked my ini and made it identical to the one on the ScreenShot Archive tutorial. That tutorial for mame within mamewah should work for dos mame as well right? Or would my mamewah ini have different settings when using dos mame with mamewah
Truz:
ok well my games will not load in mamewah when i have the showdos box option set to 2... but when i put it to 1 the games launched.
But this causes the dos box to show and looks ugly and this get messed up when i exit the game as the dos box is still there and it has to be exited out of. Quite annoying. Anyone know what the deal is here?
