No.00152 zsoltvasvari Developer Mar 14, 2008, 14:35	I can cofirm this. This probably effects all games that use atarigen.c. It was a change I made to lazy-create the timers for screen association purposes. I am not sure what the right fix would be -- perhaps the timers will need to be registered beforehand.
