The new version 4.1 and the new theme 4.4 are uploaded!
The windows versions are now unified in one version.
I have changed the way the FE loads the emulators on windows.
Also corrected few bugs and add one feature

Crashes on first execution of MAME. Crashes if I try and rotate the carousel too quickly. Occasionally crashes on startup. This version has a few bugs it seems.

OK lesson learned: "Don't change things that already work, no matter what!!!"
I have uploaded a bug fix version (theme 4.5 and HTMLFrontEnd browser 4.1.1). Check it out!
However, I got to tell you I am experiencing none of the problems you have. ???
It NEVER crashes while loading a game (emulator). Ok, I am testing it to my windows 8 machine (but it's a low end desktop pc - pentium 4)
I have tested only mame and dosbox in the actual windows xp (32bit) arcade machine (posted a video), but I can't remember if I had any problem when loading the game
So it's little bit difficult to understand what is really going wrong. In most cases I am guessing :(
What are the settings for loading mame? (settings.ini)

Still a bit buggy, I think the straight QT version may have been the best option for me (I've got copies but recommend keeping both posted for those with finicky systems like mine). Just have to be careful how I call certain games. The bugs well could have been with my settings rather than the program itself. I'll play with it more and see if I can pin down the issues.
Over in the SW FE thread I posted some of my files as an example for another user that was having a time getting started in the FE. If you're going to continue working features on this I'd recommend working on the in-program setup menu for emulators. Get that working with drop down menus and more folks will feel comfortable with it. The FE is very easy to manipulate in text but text is off-putting for some folks.
