What version of MAME would be recommended to use for the GP2X Wiz?
 
I have tried MAME_GP2X_v5.1_(GP2x).rar however the program halts when loading and never finishes. I.e. it doesn't seem to crash, because when I flip the power switch, the system shuts down properly, and for a fraction of a second it seems I can see a black screen just before the shutdown screen greets me. I've tried both the executables mame_gp2x.gpe and mame_gp2x_fast.gpe, both give the same results. I've also tried with and without a lot of romsets in the "roms" directory (just in case there is some parsing/file checking done while starting the program that was failing).
 
Any ideas or suggestions?
 
I have no other issues with the GP2X Wiz that I know of, other programs work fine.
 
I got the following port working:

MAME4ALL WIZ 2.7
 
 
However, none except for a couple of my romsets work on this port. The roms do indeed work on a PC running the latest version of MAME, and yes I do have the required BIOS files copied over.
 
Do I need special versions of the romsets to use with this port?
 
Edit: However I can add that the executable "mame_vm.gpe" does not work, I have to start "mame.gpe" to get it working. What is the difference?
