Help: Mame only showing a small screen
dislecksea:
OK. It is probably something obvious that I am just overlooking, but for the life of me I cannot figure out what the deal is.
Mame (.105) is opening and running strong, but only using about half of the screen. So for vertical games it is still leaving major real estate at the top and bottom. I have tried enabling and disabling artwork and playing with the config.ini to the degree that I am comfortable.
Any suggestions?
severdhed:
hard to say, is this on an LCD screen, or laptop? i've seen some laptops that dont scale low resolutions properly, so they just run at normal size with black borders around them.
shardian:
Did you just do a fresh format of Windows or something? I got majorly P.O.'ed when I set up a MAME cab with this same problem. The issue: I had not installed my video card drivers after the fresh install.
dislecksea:
I have actually tested it on an old TV and on an LCD, both using S-Video Out. The funny thing is that Windows and Mala are full screen. It only get small when I play a game.

Get a bigger screen. ::)
