Emusaver 3.0 error can't resolve

(1/4) > >>

iamnaeth:
Hey all, trying to get the Emusaver 3.0 to work on my arcade and I'm running into a small problem.

I followed the steps listed on Howard's website.  I placed the cmd-launch7.exe and the appropriate .ini in my mame directory.  I also placed the .scr and appropriate .ini in to my windows root directory and installed them.

I then opened the screensaver and configured my directories to my mame executable and then my roms directory.  When I hit apply then preview I got the following error:

Run time error "5"
Invalid procedure call or argument

After a little bit of expermenting i found the problem was with the skip disclaimer and skip game info, whenever these were checked this error arose.

When unchecked however, the screensaverwould run however I think it wasn't loading a game.  The background would read, "loading game please wait" however, in the foreground would be a bunch of mame information with an open documentation choice.  Pretty much what happens when you click the mame.exe without specifying a rom to load.  Before you ask, yes I have my mame rom directory correctly specified, it reads as follows: D:\arcade\emulator\mame\roms\   All the roms are .zip in this directory.  

FYI:  I have an Athlon XP, running Windows XP and mame build v.82.

Thanks ahead of time for the help.

No help on this?  :-[

On last try.  No one has had this error or knows how to resolve it?  I'd really like to get this software working.

FWIW last time I tried to set it up I couldn't get it to work (I did get v1 or 2 working fine)...

I also was asked by email about it the other day from someone else who couldn't get it to work...asking for trouble but does it work Howard!?  ;)

Maybe someone else could give it a try, I am too busy to spend time on it atm...

Howard_Casto:
That's my problem, there very well could be a bug, I just don't have time to squash it atm.
