I'm having a bit of trouble getting some roms to work with MAME on the gp2x. I've been using clrmamepro to convert them to the correct version and some seem to work but others dont, even those listed in the game list, i just get a rom load failed error when i try and run them... is there any particular reason for this!?
 
Give us an example of a game that should work, but doesn't work. Keep in mind that your GP2X may occasionally be crashing and you should try the rom twice.
 
Are you creating your MAME2x ROMset from the correct MAME set? It is based on a 0.34 set I believe, so if you are using the supplied MAME2x clrmame DAT and a 0.111u1 set (for example, or another more recent set) many ROMs will not be available as the MAME team often remove old or updated ROMs. You need to find a 0.34 set. (I'm having trouble with this too).
Hope this helps.

Google gp2x torrents...
That's the way I got the set I'm using now ;)
I'd still like a clean 0.34 set to build my own if there are future updates..

EDIT: Just double-checked and fell a bit stupid..
