I'm no expert but it looks like you are using a custom mame build and you don't have the path set to the exe correctly.Does it exit on startup of gameex or on launching a game because I believe the newer versions of gameex will still launch into the gameex menu even if no mame exe is present.

Thanks I fixed the paths and now it works 100%
