Hi,
I entered ARCADEOS and changed 1+2 to OFF
and then went to DOS and EDIT ARCADEOS.CFG and changed it
manually to 1 and then it did work again...
I've noticed that some settings don't work after
you changed them untill you restarted ArcadeOS

: : : These are some things to chaeck for:
: : : 1...Your keyboard hack isn't be sending keys 1 & 2 at the same time. Run a program that displays the keymapping and press both 1 & 2 to see if they both "light up".
: : : 2...You changed the "UI Cancel" in Mame to something other than ESC.
: : : 3...You didn't set the line "start12esc=" to 1 instead of 0
: : : I just tried ArcadeOS with start12esc=0 and then tried to press 1 & 2 and Mame acted normally. It didn't see an ESC keypress. After that I set it to start12esc=1 and tried running Mame again. This time when I pressed 1 & 2, Mame exited like I had pressed the ESC key. ArcadeOS seems to function just fine for me. I would strongly suspect the problem is with the keyboard hack. Please verify that it can send 1 and 2 seperately and at the same time as well.
: : : : OFCOURSE!!!!! That ARCADEOS.cfg is set to 1 (1+2=ESC)
: : : : But 1 or 0...have not difference!!!!
: : : : 1+2 still not give the ESC command!!!!!
: : : :
: : : : No...Thanks..... also My Hack Keyboard work fine.......this is a little problem of ArcadeOS
: : : : ( also good frontend ...) and IPac ...now I not NEEDIT!!
: : : : All was working GOOD for one month on my CAB...and now mysterously I have this problem...and not only I.....I Must Found the origin of the trouble!!!
: : : : Please HELP!!!
: :
: : I've had trouble with ArcadeOS suddenly "forgetting" thing that had previosly worked. Try deleting and reinstalling ArcadeOS, and possibly MAME too. Thats how I got it cleared up. I'm not really sure why it stopped doing certain things, but after I reinstalled it, it was fine. Hope it helps,

: THANKS A LOT....but always work good...I put also a new ArcadeOs.exe...Arcade.cfg...ecc...
: A New Mame.exe...I create a new mame.cfg...

: The Shift buttons (inside arcadeos.cfg) not working...and also the 1+2=esc option!!!
: I make also a controll on the autoexec.bat - config.sys but nothing....all OK!!!!!!!
