      Need help with my Ultradmd . It just stopped loading and will not do anything. I tried searching forums with no success with the problem. I tried clicking on the ultradmd.exe and nothing happens. Tried reinstalling it and repaing it, nothing. Tried moving dmddevice.ini and .dll into the XDMD folder didn’t work.  Any suggestions would be appreciated. here is a screen shot of what is running. It looks like it is running but is completely blankdmd

        Rebooted ? Uninstalled and rebooted ? Anti-virus/Defender off ? What if you don’t start a game and run ultradmd /c from a cmd prompt ?

            you have to go to the place where ultradmd is installed.

            cd c:\

            cd c:\virutual pinball\ultradmd

            or where ever you have installed it.

                No … you type ( pretty sure it is installed in XDMD folder )

                cd c:\Visual Pinball\XDMD

                ultradmd.exe /c

                It is essential to use the slash the correct way.

                    Yes. Your problem is that you have no clue how to work with paths with spaces in them. So, here is a for dummies guide.

                    cd means – change directory – you see in the yellow window the “PATH” – it is with spaces in them. cmd.exe is not very happy with spaces if you don’t help it once it sees them.

                    A new commando – ‘dir’ – it shows you a directory listing inside the cmd-prompt window. You don’t need to jump all the way in one go, but it should be.

                    cd “Visual Pinball\Xdmd” – then the prompt will change to indicated that your in the correct folder and a ‘dir’ should also list the files that you have in your explorer window. If it doesn’t – it will always fail since you are not in the correct folder.

                    ultradmd.exe /c

                    … means, configure – if it can’t – it should give you an error.

                    ultradmd.exe /i

                    …. tries to re-register the application ( it is kind of a – lets try to re-register this app, and might in some cases help you to get it working if it craps out with the configure above. )

                    – an extra tip, pressing <tab> key while tying might fill in parts of the name for you. If there is several alternatives – press <tab> again.
