Installed the new download, an re-entered all my systems
Now some MAME based systems will not load
if I try to run Gamate, I get error "unknown option cart
If I try to run Gamepark I get error "unknown option memc
If I try to tun Game and Watch i get error "unknown option cart"
If I switch MAME versions i sometimes don't get the errors, but the games won't load
Any help would be appreciated

MAME version 0.288
The latest I downloaded it from the site the other day.
That is when the issues started.
Everything else seems to work. I did get astrocade work
But if I try to play Game and Watch, Gamemate or Gamepark
all it does is blinks like it is loading thew game, and goes back to the mGalaxy game listing
I have my Roms in submenus in my Mame roms folder (ie I:\Mame\Roms\Gameandwatch)but Mame can read them in Mame
If I put them in the Mame Roms folder mGalaxy lists all of them when I bring up the single system, and they still don't work

Have you thought about placing the BIOS files for these systems in the “roms” folder in MAME (the steps are outlined in the Emulator tab)?
