just to confirm I am using
GameBase v1.3 (21 February 2010)
not the newer version with a registry problem. (for me anyway)
try putting the emulators on the C:\ Drive.
c:\test\ (not program files or D:\)
delete the vice.log and vice.ini files
run the WinVICE emulator set all your settings for...
TDE, Graphic Card, Window size ect.
quit and save Vice.ini.
re-load VICE uncheck "save on exit" and close.
now try it.
if it you can get it working with vice v2.1?
setup it with that version.
Run it through gamebase, test it then close down.
Then overwrite with the WinVICE v2.2 files.
thats what i did.
good luck!

It's working fine on my system.
The only way for me to reproduce the error message is deleting the ini/cfg file under Script Files.
The GEMUS script for WinVICE and CCS64 calls the associated script file for the selected emulator.
In the WinVICE configuration, this file should point to VICE.INI, located in the WinVICE mail folder.
For CCS64, you must choose C64.CFG, also located in the main folder of CCS64.
If you don't see anything under Script Files (in GameBase, click on GEMUS and choose WinVICE or CCS64), click on the New button under Script Files and browse to the correct file (VICE.INI or C64.CFG).
If this is the problem for you, this is not GB V1.3 related. Deleting the associated script file results in the same error message.
I hope this solves the problem for you all.

To KC and .Mad, thank you both so much for your help, it was indeed that both c64.cfg and vice.ini needed to be added via the new script..
SO simple yet I never gave it a thought....
Thanks guys from a sunny but cold Northolt (West London)

I just noticed that my Hoxs64 script looks different than the last one posted here. Here's what mine looks like:
Mine mentions "This script was written for Hoxs64 v1.0.5.276".
The latest one posted here by K.C. says "This script was written for Hoxs64 v1.0.2.6"
Which one should I be using? My version of Hoxs64 is v1.0.5.28.
EDIT: .mad posted the script for v1.0.5.27 in the main forum. Can I use that for this demobase too?
