Hi, I have an Ipaq HW6515 Pocket PC and I am really looking forward to use Mame on it but unfortunally the resolution is 240x240 and Mame is prepared for 240x320. Is there any solution?

Thanks

upgrade to a PDA with 480x320 resolution

seriously, arcade games expect at least a 320x244? display, so you're out of luck here (I doubt anybody would do a downscaler)

I was sure since Mamew uses Direct3D for graphics, that would take care of the scaling, to *any* resolution (just scale to a texture of arbitrary size).
Then again, I never tried anything like that, and I have never really programmed anything using DirectX.

Can anyone knowledgable in such things elaborate a wee bit...?
