1st score; 290

[roadrunner]

Hey, where is everyone?

I had a score of 110 on my old pc but it crapped out on me.
I can't get the O2EM to work on this new pc
I just get a black screen that makes noise.
I think it has something to do with this pc's F keys do different things,
like F9 and F10 turn the volume up and down.
F4 brings up projecter mode settings.

Normally you need to press the Fn key in combination with those F keys to use the volume and projectormode settings, at least on my laptop that is. It could be there is a background program running which monitors these keys in normal mode.
What kind of PC and what kind of OS are you using ?

if you don't find a different solution: look at the docs/o2em.txt - it explains how to map system-keys to different keys (like 1,2,3,4,5 etc.)
but it still shouldn't be black on startup ... what version of O2EM and what OS ?

Don't know if anyone ever saw this:

If RC plays in demo-mode on a G7000, the higshcore gets the text "G7000". When you play the demo on a G7400, the highscore gets the text "G7400".

Console detection on a Videopac

I'm using an HP notebook PC
Windows 7

The O2EM is version 0.55.0.0

There's a few other emulators that i can't get to work like MESS and Mekaw.

For other emulators i found out that i have to hold FN and press the F key that i want to use.
That works good for quite a few emulators i use.
I couldn't get this to work on the O2EM.

I can't get the keys to remap.
I can't even close the O2EM ESC doesn't work.
I have to shut down the PC.

Take a look at this page:

The O2EM is version 0.55.0.0

That is the version number of the frontend

^^^^ Thanks for the link!
I guess i have to go into the bios.


I'm using the O2EM118win

I figured out that FN and F12 will close the emulator.
I did get Atlantis to boot up and make noise but the game locked up.

[manopac]

try 1.18.1 - I made it specifically because o2em always locked up on my Win7 ...

Before i tried that new version i went into the bios and enabled the action keys but still couldn't get it to work.
