RobbyMac:
Oops my bad. I swear I had to dl a chd for it. Mustve been legends only.
While many newer games require chd's, I still don't think a chd in and of itself means you need a blazing fast computer.

Thenasty:
CHD is not Compressed Hard DRIVE it's Compress Hunks of Data (CD, HD, LD etc.)

kevo1321:
anyone know whats up with romworld? not a single rom from there is working for me... keeps saying missing files when i try to load them...

vorghagen:
RobbyMac is right in that a CHD doesn't automatically mean the game requires a beffy PC. Might just need a massive amount of data, for example, all the beatmania games have CHD files for all the music.
Killer Instinct is another CHD game that isn't too processor intensive.

Thenasty:
maybe that site don't have the full set required by the mame version your using (if Mame says it's missing, it's missing.)
