Looks installation misconfiguration mostly, cross-posting, can't repro etc., also we do not accept MAME pus bug reports so closing.
I finally fixed the issue by enabling controlled folder access and adding MAME.EXE and MAMEPGUI.EXE as allowed apps. It looks like Windows was blocking the STV BIOS games from accessing protected memory or something along those lines.
MAME version
0.261
System information
Windows 11 Home 23H2, AMD Ryzen 9 3900x, 32Gb Crucial Ballistix 3200 DDR4 RAM, Gigabyte Aorus Elite B550 AX V2 MoBo, ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQL1A, 8BitDo Arcade Controller for Xbox, over 20Tb storage.
INI configuration details
Emulated system/software
All Sega STV Bios ROMs
Incorrect behaviour
I use the mamepgui GUI interface for all versions of MAME I use as I can put my favorite games in my favorites folder. I used to be able to play STV Bios ROMs on MAME 0.260, without any issues, and then one day they all started crashing. This crashing continues with MAME 0.261 as well. the ROMs/CHDs all match the emulator version. These games still work with my old copy of MAME Plus! 0.168, which I configured to look like a real CRT screen with HLSL shaders, but the later versions of MAME emulate them better and I use BGFX on MAME 0.261 with the Super-XBR-6p chain. Please assist. DxDiag.txt
Expected behaviour
It is expected to run these ROMs, without any issue.
Steps to reproduce
1: Start MAME 0.261 via mamepgui. 2: Select any ROM that utilizes STVBios.zip as the BIOS. 3: Double-click on said ROM. 4: Access Violation Crash!
