Want a solution for running only Qbert on mame
redfivexw:
I have been battling my Qbert arcade machine for about a month now, and am getting sick of it all. I would like to set up mame to just run qbert and to boot directly to it. I have an old pc here that i can set up for it, Can anyone tell me exactly how to set up the computer to run a vertical screen mame, with only qbert on it. I currently have another mame machine running Gameex, and i love it, however gameex does not run vertical, and it is too involved a program for this cabinet.

Actually, if i could have a mini game list, and have qbert, qberts cubes and congo bongo that would be even better (those 3 games all use the 45 degree rotated stick
daywane:
you are running up the same problem ? I have.
mine is ms pac
I can get it to boot up but not flip. vert
Mario:
I expect this would work: install DOS Mame on a DOS-only machine. Update the autoexec.bat file to automatically run mame with the command line set to run Q-Bert in rotated mode.

Any advice or how tos on the dos mame setup. I can setup windows, and i can setup GameEx front end, and setup mame32, but i have never done anything with DOS, i dont even know where to get dos or how you install it. But i do have a Celeron 600 computer here that i want to use. If anyone can give me a how to i would appreciate it, or if someone has the skills, i can send them a hard drive and you set it up for me ;D! I would be willing to pay a little for the effort. This is going in a genuine Qbert machine, i have given up on fixing the actual electonics in it, it is too problematic of a machine for me, however if i could get a PC in there and make it look original, that would be great. So, what i am looking for is a selection screen that has 3 choices: Qbert, Qberts Cubes, and Congo Bongo. I would want the screen to be rotated vertically and just boot right to the screen. help
