Hi Ron, There actually doesn't seem to be any menu bar whatsoever when I press F2 (the key to access a menu bar on a PACMateBX) or F2-chord. It's just basically a blank window, and there's nothing that can even be navigated to with the JAWS cursor.
By the way, is there some folder I'm supposed to put my games into?
