toddtmw Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Today, I went to use Altirra and the screen is just black. If I click close, it goes grey and then if I pick Display from the view menu, it goes black. Inserting disks or cartridges or changing the machine type seems to have no effect. I tried redownloading it and going through initial setup again and it still just shows a black screen. Does it store settings somewhere that may need to be deleted to reset it? any other ideas? Thanks. -Todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddtmw Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Well, I just changed firmware to autoselect and it booted. Weird. Nevermind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 (edited) Depending on the version it has a reset settings option in Tools / Options. If its old then you can use a command line with a /resetall It also can store the settings as a config file in the root where Altirra is if you launch Altirra with a /portable extra to the command line, to return to it using the registry just delete the cfg WHILE its running..

toddtmw Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 I figured out what I did. I changed the VM sharing permissions on my host and didn't realize that Altirra was using a path on the host to get to the system BIOSes. When I re-installed it, I copied the BIOS folder locally, but I guess it was still pointing to an old path until I manually changed it and then it found one at the new path.
