I've been working on my X2 Multi for a while and running into some inconsistent problems. Most X2 games are fine, maybe half the NESiCAxLive ones, MAME and PC games are fine. However, the rest either have a disgusting pink tint over it (happens in windows certain resolutions as well) or have a black or flickering bar at the bottom. I'm running the games at 1280x720 (pink) or 1280x768 (bar). Testing on a consumer screen, 1280x720 is fine, 1280x768 has the bar. Also can't figure out why, but video files in any game do not play and either a) crash the game, b) get skipped or c) force the game to hang on one screen until you insert coin/press start. All work outside of games, in other applications. K-Lite Codec Pack is installed.

It may have just been a while and I haven't tried the premade image for a long time, but it confuses me why they wouldn't appear correctly on a stock Viewlix, of all things. I have several things to try and a lot of work to go, but I thought I should drop a line here and see what people have to say. I'm running XP Embedded SP3 with 258.96 NVidia drivers to support MAME.
 
My reasons for forming my own OS are kind of nullified, but it's definitely something with that install causing it. Games display correctly on Niko's multi, and got a build of MAME running on it. I can't seem to get MAME to force a resolution though, but no matter. It at least works. I'll try the mega pack though, it's a project I started and I can't bear to leave it unfinished, thanks :D
