Here's the v0.102 driver, rename williams.txt to williams.c.
Enjoy!

I found the problem. The williams roms I have don't have the decorded files in them. Is there a way I can the decorder files or do I have to find the roms with them added already?

Just downgrade your Mame version for now, that will get things working for those games again.
And the ROMs are available, but please don't ask for them here.

I finally got it to work. I got the roms with the decorder files in them. Seems that some of the Williams games are missing the decorder files for them to run. I guess this is something as of late and it depend where you get roms.
