Mamewah + daphne exit problem???

(1/3) > >>

deadsoulz:
I have searched the forums and haven't quite found what I am seeing, or at least not how I interpret it.  I recently finished my 4 player cabinet using mamewah, mame works fine daphne appears to work fine as well about 4 out of 5 times, or at least I haven't been able to get an exact pattern yet of when the problem occurs, but here it is.  20% of the time when we get done playing a daphne game and exit, then try and launch another we get no keyboard or sound response.  so I have to hit ctrl+alt+delete and kill the daphne process, then everything returns back to normal.  Has anyone seen this before?  I am running mamewah 1.61 and the latest available version of daphne on the daphne site.  It appears to me its a problem with mamewah in combination with daphne at least in my setup.  I am running WindowsXP SP2 with most of the unneeded services disabled.  Any help is appreciated. 

Thank you,

deadsoulz

How are you launching Daphne from within MameWAH? Are you suing a batch file or just commandline parameters? Post a copy of your daphne.ini file you use in mamewah to launch daphne so we can see the parameters.

Minwah:
I'm not convinced this will make any difference, but you could try using the '{safelaunch}' flag in the commandline_format in your (Mameweah) Daphne ini file.
