: MAME DOS issues tend to revolve around one of three issues:
: 1) Sound - Unlikely to be the problem here since you implied that some games are working.
: 2) Video - Possibly the cause, try specifying a screen resolution instead of allowing it to choose.
: 3) Memory - Also possible, If you are playing memory hungry games and are borderline on ram. You would not see this in windows because of Window's virtual memory.

: Almost everything can be narrowed down do one of these things, with the exception of running funky tsr's in memory while playing (but I assume if you are then this is the first thing you would check). Hope this helps.

: : from windows explorer I can launch AOS and play my games fine. when I boot to dos and launch AOS, it will not run most of the games and I get a half of a screen of errors including the above text for a fraction of a second. any ideas?
