MAME 78 (MAME2003) Corrupt?
It used to work great and never had a problem until recently. For some reason, all of roms for MAME .78 do not work anymore. Like, if I want to play Mortal kombat and it shows a loading screen and then goes back to the attract mode game list menu. My guess is, are the emulator files corrupt? I am using ARpiCADE 3.X. Before I mess around to fix this, what do you suggest? Thanks.

Not sure.
It sounds like a file has corrupted or otherwise become bad but I have no idea which one... If you want to chase it up you could try running from the command line to see if there's an error message which gives a clue. At the command line you can try the command "/boot/launchers/mame078.sh mk" to launch Mortal Kombat in 078 from the command line.
If you have a backup image it's almost definately going to be easier/quicker to restore your SD card from the backup.

I didn't think about the backup image, good one! Silly me. Lucky for me, I have my 2nd memory card in another arcade cabinet (my 2nd arpicade). I clone it and it works great. Thanks!
