thank you,thank you, many a thank you. also thanks to my bud scott from work who 1st pointed out i was a "tard." lastnight when i got in a created a shortcut of the mame EXE and left it in my start up foder. (where i had moved the original EXE) i moved the original EXE back to the mame folder that i got it from. i located a few other configuration files that i guess were created in error by my moving of the EXE. i deleted the files, did a restart and PRESTO..............my  favorites were back ! mame now seems to work fine.
so again THANKS,THANK,and more THANKS. i now just need to complete my JPAC tonight and begin testing. perhaps this weekend the project might be complete.

Just to mention, when upgrading mame versions, I never install into the old directory. (In fact, as far as I know, mame doesn't 'install', and has no registry interaction.) I unzip into a main directory - for me it's My Documents - and then cut or copy and paste the exe* into the old directory.

*I usually use mame32/UI, so I just do the exe. However, if I (just for testing purposes, mind) happen to grab vanilla mame, I included the other exes or whatever with it, as they're necessary for mame to run. 32/UI has them bundled together.

thanks for the advise !
