I am using the latest dos version of Mess in my arcade cabinet because I want to run it from a xommand line. When I try to use A5200 the display is all messed up to the posint that it is completely unreadible. Is anyone aware of settings I can try to fix this? I have tried changing the resolution, but that does not help.

I see what your getting at. What OS are you using.
There are SOME DOS Games/Emulators that I want to run in Windows ME but the display is all messed up.
I bet you MAME DOS wont display probably either, just like MESS DOS.
Ive given up long ago how to try to fix this as changing resolutions dont work, all I can say are these 3 options.
1. Continue and just get used to the messed up display in DOS (Some other resolutions arnt as messed up as others)
2. Download the windows32 MESS version.
4. Install a new OS that better for DOS Applications.

I am using windows 98
I still think it is some setting. It does not make sense that some would work and others not.

hmmm I had no probems with display off DOS stuff using Windows 98.
I posted a simular thread to yours here once - http://www.atariage....pic.php?t=23893
and MAME is obviously done by the same authors of MESS, and ive noticed some work and others not.
