hi, i have the ipaq 3850, i installed mamece autoinstall. so far so god, i can start mame without problems.i download a galaga rom for mame, but when i start a Game, the screen is a moment blue, and then it goes back to startmenü.in options sound is on before i will start a game.
what can here be wrong ?? thanks for help !!

Gots the 3850 english though, should be same. It may be a bad rom, does it work running under normal mame on the pc...

My Galaga (namco) works and I just tried my (set 3) it works as well...

Try grabbing one of these two from a site and see if works.

Also be sure that you do a soft reset after you don't get a game to work, I've found that I try a game and it craps out and the I try games, I've gotten to work in the past, and they do the same thing.

Happy Rom Hunting.

You may need to free up some more memory, or you may have a bad ROM.
try some other games like pacman, crazy kong, or tempest. If they play, then the problem is probably not in the program.
