SubjectMAMECE3 Won't work on my iPAQ 3850 ! new Reply to this message

When I pick a game and press Play, I just get a dark blue screen and after 30 sceond It goes back to the main screen.

When I install MAMECE3 in my PDA, it prompts me if I want to replace the file "windows\gx.dll from 6/7/01" with the 13/7/02 one; after clicking "yes" I then prompts me the file is a hidden, read-only or system file if I really want to proceed and I click yes.

I have re-installed it clicking "no" but still not work. The questions will be asked every time I re-install it (even if I said "yes" in the previous intallation)".

The software is very promising, please help.

I have the same problem on my Jornada 568. I am also very keen on getting this to work. I read somewhere that the temporary blue/black screen is due to lack of free system memory (about 7/8MB is needed), but I have at least 20MB free. PLease help us if anyone can! This is a desperate plea!

IOK, I think I have cracked it. THe Roms I had was too new. You need to use the older roms .36
They will then display in your list and will be playable!!

I have the 3835 and only 1 game works so far (congo bongo) with no sound. None of the others will boot up at all. I really want Donkey Kong, and DK Jr.

Any ideas. I have MameCE3.

Any help would be great.

The roms that I have are old ones that were on my computer from before. All rom download sites are shut down. Any ideas where to download roms?

Thanks,
