Read the MAME FAQ, they changed formats for the CHD files.  There's a conversion utility included with MAME now for older CHDs.

I was going to suggest reading the FAQ, but that entry is not in there!

MAME changed the CHD spec as of .79.  You can convert your existing CHD images to the new spec with the CHDMAN.EXE program that comes with Mame.  It does not come with the MAME32 version, you'll have to get the official version from http://www.mame.net
