How do I get games in MAME to run at a different frequency?
javeryh:
OK, I have the Happs Vision Pro VGA/SVGA monitor (http://www.happcontrols.com/monitors/491337vp2lg.htm) and some games give me an "out of range" error message when I try to play them. Examples are Tapper, Popeye and Mortal Kombat II. Is there any way to get these games playable on my monitor? Is there a setting I can input for each game that is doing this so it will run in the proper range of my monitor?
THANK YOU!!!

Thanks... for each game individually or mame as a whole?

OK, I'm going to try and walk through an example... I am running "mspacman" perfectly with no modifications or special configurations other than specifying "-ror" so it rotates 90 degrees. According to MAWS, mspacman runs at a resolution of 224x288 and at a frequency of 60.606060Hz. Everything works perfectly for this game.
I'm also trying to run "popeye" however I get an "out of range" error message on the monitor. According to MAWS, popeye runs at a resolution of 512x448 and a frequency of 60.000000Hz. How can I instruct my monitor to display this?
Would the command "-resolution 640x480" do the trick?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated. THANKS!!
