Archived from groups: alt>games>mame (more info?)

JUST started playing Arkanoid for the first time, and made a mistake.
No problem, I hit F3(Reset) all the time. But it messed up Arkanoid!
Now I just get color bars, it won't do anything else. Mame32k

Of course, there are several versions available, so I started another
one and messed it up, too!

HELP! What did I do, and how do I fix it? Closing and restarting Mame
doesn't help.

Thanks, all!

if it's Arkanoid settings, i think there's an Arkanoid file you can delete.
this was covered a few days ago in another thread.

if it's some other type of settings, i dunno.

i keep botching my game config too, lol.

Is it just Arkanoid? If so, delete arkanoid.cfg. If not, delete
default.cfg. HTH

First locate and delete arkanoid.cfg. If this doesn't work, delete
default.cfg. You lose all settings though.
