In the past few days I have updated all the emulators I have. Tedious but rewarding task.:)
However, I had problems with the MAME emulator. Some systems just stopped working. I realized that the problem could be in the bios used to run the games.
Because sometimes the mother's screen just appeared with the information saying "INITIALIZING", and then it closed.
I updated the bios and everything was resolved, except for the PHILIPS CDI system.
I downloaded numerous bios for this system but the games insist on not starting up.
As in the photos attached to this post:
Only appears "INITIALIZING" or when the game is opened the philips CDI screen without CD appears.

This is my command line:      mame64.exe cdimono1 -cdrm "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" -keepaspect

Mame Version: mame0220b_64bit


can anybody help me?
There are a few days that I am trying here but without success. It's not my laziness.:wacko:

Are you sure that your bios files match your MAME version?  Also, please don't discuss how your bios files are obtained as this is against forum rules!

definitely the existing bios pack on my pc differs from the version of MAME I have.
The point is that I didn't find the bios pack updated in the latest version of MAME. and all the ones I downloaded didn't work either.

Did you get it working outside of GameEx? Sounds familiar. Could it be this?

The problem described in that post was resolved after I got good roms.
the PROBLEM now is that those roms that were working no longer work ...

 

I couldn't get it to work outside of gameex.

Not much that can be done there. :(

This seems to happen with MAME  where previously working ROMS stop working after a new version is released.

Maybe it is that. But maybe not. If there were other people using this emulator I could be sure.:wacko:
Thank you for your help.

Well have you ran your roms through a rom manager tool to verify that they match?

I don't know this tool.
could you tell me the way?

There are a few. ROMLister and CLRMAMEPro come to mind.

Search "ROM management" and check for yourself to see if they or others will work for you and the system you're attempting to emulate.
