Re: area51mx.chd not found - but it's there!!!

The fact that it works in MAME doesn't mean it's in the proper 
directory.  MAME and AdvanceMAME don't use the same config file, and may 
therefore be looking in two completely different locations.

What is the full path to the file, and what is your images directory set 
to in advmame.rc?

It works fine on my friends AdvMAME .92 install, so it's likely a 
problem with your config.
