Does anyone have any experience with this program, I have tried loading the roms, but I cannot seem to get them to work, how do I do it??? The website's instructions have me baffled.

I have used MAME before.

Are you saving the roms in the designated rom folder?

go here, download the file:

http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/arcade/mame.html
MAMEUI (32bit) 0.126 32 bit version Windows Freeware Jul 10, 2008 7679 Kb.

It'll extract it to a MAMEUI folder, put roms in ROMS folder. The only exe you'll see there is the program :)
