Subject: [advancemame-users] "No Video Modes Available" Error

 

Hello,

 

I installed and setup AdvancedMame for DOS.  I ran the "Advcfg" utility
to setup the monitor configuration.  When I try and run a game I get the
following error:

 

"No Video Modes Available"

"Unable to start video Emulation"

 

Does this mean that I cannot play this particular game under
AdvandedMame?  If so, is it because my Monitor is the limiting factor,
or my Video card?  The video card that I am using is supported under the
DOS AdvancedMame release (ie: it's on the list).

 

Thanks,

 

Hugh
