    Use mame. It automatically flips the screen in most games. If that fails read the readme. Theres a command that allows you to flip the screen orientation.

    I'm using mame32 and it doesn't flip it automatically, I tried to change it but had no joy. Where is the readme in MAME???

    It should come with the mame download. If not the readme is available from www.mame.net

    I'm sorry to be a pain again. I'm still having no joy flipping the screen. I have the most up to date version of Mame32. If someone has MSN and could please chat to me and help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

    Assuming your using the GUI...

    Right-Click on a game giving you trouble.
    Select Properties and the Display Tab.

    Make sure Rotation is Default.
    And Flip <whatever> is unticked.

    If that doesn't work...
    Then try a different rotation (clockwise or anti), whichever you require.

    If that doesn't work...
    Remove your mame32.ini file.

    If that doesn't work...
    Remove your game.cfg file.
