IMHO the easiest way is to download the MAME32 (command line version) of MAME (since you don't need the MAMEUI version since you will be using a front end) and then download Maximus Arcade (frontend).  It's one of the easiest to use since it's all point and click for setting up.

Just make sure your version of MAME matches your version of ROMS.

Man when I think back to when I first picked up this hobby, I probably spent a good 3 months of reading various sites about emulation. I didn't even think to just jump on here.

i thought mame32 and mameui were the same thing.
 at least if using a front end i thought you didn't want mame32 just mame

From what I understand, the original MAME (command line) is for DOS.  MAME32 is the same thing except in runs in Windows instead of DOS.  MAMEUI is a modified MAME32 that adds a User Interface (hence the UI).

Can anyone concur?
