How do I get my mame to work on my gp2x. i have the 3.7 software.

There's an important file called README.TXT

... read it.

Then re-read it.

Then, read it again, follow the instructions (while reading the included README.TXT file)

...I don't even think he has a GP2X version. He probably has the PC version.

I DO have the GP2X 3.7 Version. I have gotten some of roms to work, but many do not. Ive tried the clrname.dat method, but the method is unclear and the roms still dont work. Some still do, i've tried dragging my roms from my mame on my computer file to my rom file on my GP2X file. The same ones work and many do not. Any help please????

MAME ROM sets change with new releases of MAME.

The GP2X version of MAME is based on MAME version 0.34/0.35. The current PC version of MAME is like 0.113; that's like 80 or so versions ago!

As a result, the ROMs have changed ALOT. Many current ROMs will NOT work on the GP2X version of MAME.

The best solution is that you will need to find ROMs which are compatible with either 0.34 or 0.35 versions of MAME. The CLRMame thing doesn't really work. You can't convert ROMs in most cases.
