So I'm confused as to which of these to use.  I was going along using ArcadeOSD to configure resolutions, setting up my monitor_specs in the vmmkaer.ini.

I'm using super resolutions

Do I also have to covert these to crt_range's and put them into mame.ini as well?  Or can't groovymame just assume I've put my mode lines in with vmmaker and choose the correct one without me having to specify this in two places.

Sorry I'm a newb, not sure how this is supposed to work.

GroovyMAME can't guess your vmmaker settings, you need to port those to crt_range format. Future versions of vmmaker will use the crt_range format so it'll make things easier.
Important note: posts reporting GM issues without a log will be IGNORED.
Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead of pasting it.
