Most of us have switched to mamewah config written by screaming- all you need is the .NET framework...ask minwah thru PM otherwise if you need an older version...he may have it

Work backwards to find the error.  First try mame @ the command prompt, on the odd chance that it's @ fault(or it's settings).

Honestly, the documentation for v1.6 Mamewah is rather good and gives you ALL the info you need to setup the frontend by directly modifying your .ini files without set-up software.

Yeah the .ini files are nice, I just prefer the click and drag style of mamewah config + the autodownload of the templates from JCrouse's sites.  I find it easier for me to use it than translate what each line means in the .ini but everyone has his/her preferences correct?
