Spider-man (Arcade) Help!

[womperstomper]

Does anyone know what emulator will work for the Spider-man arcade Rom I downloaded off of coolroms?

I tried MAME32 but i don't know how to load spiderman. Mame32(windows not that command line crap) has a list of games inthe all games folder but Spider-man isn't one of them. Is there something wrong with the Rom from this site?

I got about all of the Bios on the list.

Last thing has anybody played spider-man(arcade) recently?
If anyone can help that would be great. I haven't played it in 15 years and want to bad.

MAME is the best one to use. Now, IDK if there is an easier way, but this is how I do it.

Copy the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe to the MAME folder.
Click ont he cmd.exe file, and type in run gamename.

To find out the name of the game, just check the ROM file's actual name. It should be something like spiderman.zip, or something like that. If it is spiderman.zip, then type in run spiderman.

Edit: Tell me if this works.

It didn't work. I think its the actual zip file. I extracted it to look at the contents and it neither a bin or iso its just some numbers that look like this, 14280 instead of like a03_13.bin (superman.zip).

Rule one about arcade games is to never extract them. You need it compressed for it to work. But don't go and try to put that file back together. Just re-download the file and put it in the ROM directory. Then run cmd.exe and type run spiderman. Got it?
