deafult folder for MAME, MAME32 and others are named ROMS, in advmame it is default to ROM. So you need to edit advmame.rc and make it ROMS.

Yeah I got a similar problem. AdvanceMame seems to be really picky about the roms.... or something

OK Found what my problem was, I was trying to us a differnt roms directory and fool Advancemame into thinking it was the same ROM folder. I had got this working before, but not with advanceMame... and it didnt seem to like it....

So make sure all your ROMS are in the ROM folder in advancemame
