First, just to clairfy there is nothing that happends between MameWAH and the roms. The compatability you seek must exist between Mame and the roms. It is recommend by the MameWAH author to use the commandline version of mame and not mame32 although some people do. All the platforms you mention will run from within MameWAH. Check out my website, http://home.comcast.net/~cpviewer for setup help with your ini files.

Good Luck,

Right now I have Mame32 version .89 running with roms just fine.
At one time I loaded MameWah and command line mame and a lot of the ROMS would suddenly not work.

I think you must have configured Mamewah incorrectly.

If you have .89 roms, running MAME32 Version .89, then you should get the commandline mame version .89 and the roms will work.

Additionally, you will need to configure Mamewah to pass the rom names correctly to command-line mame. If NONE of the roms work, then chances are, you have incorrectly configured Mamewah... if only some of them have a problem, then it's probably MAME itself.
