Mame arcade machine issues (MameWah)

Morning everyone,

Hopefully somebody can help?

I have a mame cabinet running MameWah. I haven't used it for a while and when I turned it on it was complaining that the MB board time was not set and wouldn't boot into windows (running XP).

I tracked it down to the CMOS battery being dead, so I replaced that and set the time in the BIOS.

Historically it would always boot into my frontend (MameWah) and then off I go. Since the battery change it boots into MameWah for about 3 seconds and then black screen with nothing happening.

If I CTRL+ESC and run windows explorer I just get a blank desktop.

I'm not really sure what else to do. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
