Hey all.

 

I have an arcade machine running MAME with Maximus Arcade frontend.

 

Everything works as it should and has been for some time but the last time i switched the machine on one of my favourite games - Gunsmoke - wouldn't run. I got a flash of the "loading" message then just a blank screen. Most other roms work fine but i did find another couple of games that gave the same result (can't remember which ones)

 

I've tried downloading the rom file again as I suspected it might be corrupt but still nothing. I haven't changed anything and, like I said, it used to work just fine.

 

Any ideas as to what might suddenly stop this rom from running?

 

Cheers in advance

The only reason I can think of is if you have changed the emulator but you claim you have not.  Very strange..

I have a worse problem! I don't even know how to work mame. Is it like MFME where you can use the keyboard or do you need an arcade cabinit to play fruities? I can play time crisis with the keyboard and a lite gun. I want to try something like road hog to see if the samples are messed up like in MFME.
