 New cheats are causing a problem. You are not supposed to report bugs unless the cheats are not active! This problem needs to be dealt with at http://cheat.retrogames.com (when it comes back online). Until then, either delete the .XML from the cheat.zip file or don't use the -cheat toggle for that game.

 Thank you I was not even running any codes for the game to crash .

At the time I did not know it was a Cheat problem that is why I did not list it as Cheat System problem.

 That was the point, you didn't have to be actively using a cheat. All you needed was -cheat toggled and the XML compilation in the same folder as MAME. Certain cheats which were assumed to be in an OFF state were ON - so this causes all sorts of problems with many games.
