Hi, hope I can help you a little, I once had the same problem when changing 
my G400 for a
new Radeon 9000.  Unfortunately, I always got the same signal 291 error and 
abort.

I discovered through trial and error, that the error happened only when I 
had a certain number
of modelines in Advmame.rc file.; If I had more than 24 modelines, Advmame 
crashed, If I had 23 or
less, it worked O.K.

I solved it by using the include command in advmame.rc to put modelines in 
another file.

I hope you can fix the problem, but , at least, you can start Advmame, 
because I.. just couldnt!

See you!

            Quique.
