mame with mGalaxy crashes error

[Aeliss]

I think it s because configuration (and priority beetween command line and configuration files), somes front end use their own configurations, and some of them make many files in many folders, all differents for all games.
I have spend lot of hours to repair mame when I had a similar bug. Some front end worked but not all, in fact the difference was a special path (to the corrupted file) in a special ini file not used by all the front end.

The only way I have found, was to make an new folder and look the files dates one by one, to check wich one are modified.

Try with batch file too, to check command line.

I found a problem with MameUIHiScore just do not know which side is wrong. If the run game like "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" by mGalaxy and hiscore.dat file is located in the same folder as mameuihiscore32.exe what is recommended, emulator get error . If you run game without using the frontend everything is alright. After removing hiscore.dat and run the same game in mgalaxy everything returns to normal. What is the fault of the emulator?

MAMEUIFX 0.153 FIX released.

 Updated to MAME 0.153

 * Changelog from 0.153:

 - Fixed a bad variable memory allocation which was the cause of some random crashes
 (Thanks to Piggei at MAME Italian Forum)
 - Updated HLSL Files to latest MAME source. This was forgotten in 0.153

everything is back to normal

sorry for the confusion but why did mameUIHIscore version also did not work and now works back

I had a similar problem on mame one time, but I don't remeber if it was the cheat.zip file or a corrupted config file. To make a try, re-instal mameuifx on another clean directory.

 System File Checke has not detected any errors

The Windows Resource Protection found no integrity violations.
I used the "DllSuite" and I fixed all the errors, surprisingly, there were 150 but it did not help.

I installed new windows again without connecting to the Internet. I installed directx_Jun2010_redist and dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64 and the latest versions of mGalaxy. downloaded the new-installing mameuifx error appears on. Strangest thing is how i run some games for example "street hoop" (neogeo) everything is fine and now to run game "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" i get the error

Coming from Microsoft site, hope it'll help you:

The ntdll.dll file is a file created by Microsoft that has a description of "Layer DLL" and is the file that contains kernel functions. This file is located in the c:\windows\system32.
 
Please follow the methods to fix the issue with the corrupted files in the computer and find the cause of the issue.
 
Method 1: Run SFC scan in the computer
 
Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows 7:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
 
 
Method 2: I would suggest to re-register the .dll:
 
Click on Start, then Run.
Now all you have to do to register a DLL file is to type in the regsvr32 command, followed by the path of the DLL file. : regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\ ntdll.dll

Hi, never had anything like it. I'm using Windows 7 x86 with all windows updates to this mameuihi 0153 & mameuifx 0153. Trying to run any game pops up an error message. No difference which version of mame will use the effect is the same. Specially reinstalled Windows, but the problem is not solved. The emulator without the frontend is working normally.
