Arcade Emulation Help?

so ive tried MAME32 and NeoGeo, but neither of them work for me. i mean, the emulators themselves work fine, but the ROMs never play.

from what ive seen, i like MAME32 better, so ill focus on that. i download the ROM, put it in the "ROMS" folder of the emulator and click "Audit All Roms" but it doesnt work. the game does not show up. do i need to get a special BIOS or something? if so, can you please post a link to where i can get that.

any/all help is appreciated, and if you know of a better arcade game emulator, im open to suggestions. thank you!!

    you need the neo geo bio if your play games like kof,metal slug,etc

    put those in the rom folder with the games,and if you play games like street fighter then get the cpzn1,cpzn2.

    If I remember correctly, you have to leave the ROMs zipped, and not extract their files.

    This is all that is really required for mame to find them.
