How does MSX & ColecoVision Co-Exist in BlueMSX?

@tpr I can't test this at the moment but what if you
rename the config folders to msxBAK & colecoBAK (easy to restore if this doesn't help)
uninstall bluemsx / reboot / reinstall
just to regenerate fresh config files?
at least this would eliminate those folders from trouble shooting??

@lister-of-smeg That's a good idea! I'll do this tonight!

@tpr having thought about it
now might be a good time to start making sd card backups
I use Win32 Disk Imager - It's saved me from disaster a few times

@lister-of-smeg Oh, trust me, I am on backup #19 of this build already! :P

@lister-of-smeg Same results. It's fine. I've now resorted to just making a game config file for every ColecoVision game. A lot of them use FBNeo anyway since BlueMSX doesn't support the homebrew "Super Game Module" games and FBNeo does. If it ends up being a bigger issue I might just switch over to FBNeo for all those games.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I'm throwing in the towel on this one! :D

Indeed FBneo is a good choice.

For those who don't know, we did a lot of work in this thread :

@Folly the problem is with colecovision on lr-bluemsx is I can't use the keyboard after the blue screen with select game options apper in a colecovision game. What should I do?
