I suck at this stuff, thats why i post my problems here. When I boot my mame cabinet I get an error that reads "error in line 5 of config.sys pressany key to continue". I press a key and all is well but nno windows option on my boot menu. It used to work and now it doesn't (what's up with that?). included are my config.sys and autoexec.bat files. Can anyone solve my dilemma??

Try putting a [WIN] in the config.sys. It might work. I don't see one in the config you posted. RoarCade 3/31/2001 (0)
