AtomicFE Question - Windows shows up on Game Exit
« on: December 28, 2005, 05:44:03 pm »
Hi Youki

I am sorry if this has been talked about.  When I hit escape during a MAME game, the screen goes black and the Windows Taskbar at the bottom of the screen is visible for 5 or 6 seconds before the game selection skin comes on again. 

Is there a way to make it so that the Windows taskbar does not show between the time you exit a game and the game menu screen comes back on?

I am running WindowsXP SP2.

You can set it to hidden so that it only comes up when you place your cursor on it.

It is strange that you can see it.

I would say try to not set it up as "Automatically Hidden" .

Do you have other application running while Atomic is running?

Antivirus?  or another application which would appear in the task bar?

Another way to get rid off this bar , is to set up Atomic as Shell.  There is a topic in this forum where i explain how to do that.
