mamewah config.
spottydog:
Thanks for your replies. I'm running Windows98SE. I was able to register paintx.dll but the setup.bat problem remains. I try to install the mamewah system files but there is an error related to regsvr32.exe and paintx.dll.
I downloaded and saved regsvr32.exe to a floppy disk and tried to install it but couldn't - there was an error.
Any suggestions?

If you registered paintx.dll OK then don't worry about the setup.bat problem. As long as Mamewah runs and you can see your snapshots then all is ok.
If your display (in MAME) is blurry I suspect you have hardware stretch (hwstretch) turned on - edit your \mame\mame.ini file accordingly.

Thanks. The graphics are as sharp as with mame32(with some changes in the default options).
I ran 'The Simpsons' but some games would cause a crash. They would load, a window with the game name would appear and it would go to the taskbar. Some games would wobble - like the vertical hold pot should be adjusted.
Also I want to avoid the desktop after starting the pc. How can I put a mamewah shortcut in my start/programs list?
thanks

Put a shortcut to mamewah in your startup folder in the start menu. That will boot your computer into mamewah. You can also make a customizable splash screen. Just do a search and you will find the thread.

Hello, I put a mamewah shortcut in my start/programs folder and in my start/programs list.
I also edited the win.ini. file.
I've clicked the properties on both shortcuts and selected 'maximised' but the desktop appears and mamewah doesn't start after I start the pc.
Here's a summary of the problems I'm trying to solve:
1> mamewah will not start automatically. I've been unable to hide the desktop.
2> games load then disappear with Mamewah causing my pc to lock/crash.
3> there is colour bleeding. An example is the snk logo. I start an mvs game, the neo geo pro gear spec screen appears, the graphics are sharp but blue extends out of the snk letters. This bleeding occurs in games too, often with red.
4> Some games wobble at the 'type ok' screen, like the vertical hold should be adjusted.
thanks
