No.24143 Osso Moderator 7 days ago	Up to 0.261 it worked as follows: select CD-ROM as Start Up Media in the DIP switches menu in file manager select the install CD soft reset the game would install switch back to runtime CD select Flash ROM as Start Up Media in the DIP switches menu soft reset the game would start From 0.262 on in file manager you can't select the install CD. It finds it, you can select it but it doesn't stick.
No.24144 Osso Moderator 7 days ago	In the 0.262 release cycle there was some work done in src/frontend/mame/ui/filemngr.cpp that may or may not be related to the regression.
No.24145 Osso Moderator 7 days ago	reinserting reset(reset_options::REMEMBER_POSITION); at line 269 of filemngr.cpp fixes MAME ignoring the selection of the install CD.
No.24158 cuavas Administrator 2 days ago	The menu not showing the change is a UI issue – the image device isn’t notifying subscribers when you change the preset image. It’s still changing the media image, the menu just isn’t updating to reflect it. Note that if you back out of that menu and then choose “File Manager” from the main menu again, the menu item will update. That part is fixed by 76a0dde560bd73cf59889d48dde7ce23fe1a0762 Whatever is causing the system to fail to recognise the security cartridge is a separate issue.
No.24159 cuavas Administrator 2 days ago	Did you confirm that the failure to recognise the security cartridge started in 0.262, or did you just assume it started then because of the UI issue?
No.24160 cuavas Administrator 2 days ago	Actually, it works in MAME 0.285. You can install the game if you flip the DIP switch, swap in the installation CD, reset the system and hit the test button. The UI issue is annoying (and the lack of notifications may also break some Lua scripts), but it doesn’t break the game.
No.24161 cuavas Administrator 2 days ago	This is what happens when you boot before installing the game.
No.24164 Robbbert Moderator 2 days ago edited on: 2 days ago	Still doesn't work with latest git. I set the dip to boot off CD-ROM, and selected the install CD. There is no "test button" in the inputs list. If you mean F2 or 9, they don't do anything. Reopening so that someone can fix it properly.
No.24165 cuavas Administrator 2 days ago	It works. Select the install CD, set bit to CD-ROM , and soft reset. It will prompt you to press the test switch (aF2 by default) to install. Wait for it to install. Then swap the CD and DIP switch back and reset again.
No.24166 Osso Moderator 2 days ago	Can confirm it works.
No.24167 Robbbert Moderator 2 days ago edited on: 2 days ago	Still not working. After a reset, the CD goes back to runtime by itself. Ah, ok, if I select "install", then do not reset, but then just press F3, only then did it do something different. Definitely need to add this to my documentation, it isn't something that the average user will ever guess.
