HELP!!! MAMEWAH issue. Having to use mouse...
« on: August 31, 2004, 10:21:26 am »
This is a new issue for me. Not really sure how it happened. I have MAMEWAH, and only MAMEWAH, in my Startup folder so that it starts immediately when Windows opens.

Not sure what I did, but now, the taskbar at the bottom is now showing up in FRONT of the MAMEWAH skin. When MAMEWAH opens, it isn't active, meaning I have to use my mouse and click on my MAMEWAH skin before I can start scrolling through the games.

Anyone know how I can fix this? I really don't want to have to use my mouse every time I start up my cabinet.

I have solved various odd errors and glitches in the past by deleting MAMEWAH.CFG in the FILES folder. Most of the time you will only have to set a couple of options again, such as your skin and music dir

If you're using XP you may have the taskbar set to always be on top.  You can set this by right clicking the bar and modifying the properties.
