Play a game, adjust your monitor. Play another, adjust your monitor if neccessary. And so on...you should be able to get all modes fullscreen ok.

doesnt work on mine. If you stretch anad adjust via the manual controls, it does so for all resolutions, I think...

Does yours have an On Screen Display (& memory)? Generally these type use pushbuttons, some (older) monitors use 'dials' (pots probably). The latter type usually only has one setup, the former saves position/size info etc. for each mode (basically).

mine has push buttons. But its too late now- cabs completed and I cannot get to the buttons anymore - unless there is some software that can change the controls for me!

That's what I do. Specifically, I use MultiRes (www.entechtaiwan.com) to specify that 800x600 should be at 85 Hz. Set that up in windows to display full-screen, and then use -hws to make MAME play it that way.
DarthBane2k - Most newer graphics drivers also allow you to adjust these settings through the driver screen.
