Not an area I know a lot about, but don't you need some kind of actual MAME application to run the roms?

Yeah mate, you need the MAME prog to run the games on. Multi Arcade Machine Emulator. When you've got that prog set up, you copy the ROMS (games) into the ROMS folder in the MAME directory. Then when you open MAME it finds them and you can play them. There's some top retro arcade games that you can get, and all are absolute carbon copies of the original arcade games.

I might have the .exe prog that you need. I'll have a look in a bit
