Incorrect Checksum for Star Wars Arcade (Vector based)

I'm new to MAME in general but when I found it I started downloading lots of games. For reference, I'm using MAME 32 and just recently installed MAMEUI 32. One game I was thrilled to find was the old Star Wars vector based arcade game (Rev 2). That said, when I would do an audit, that game wouldn't show up in my Available Games list. If I clicked on the All Games tab, I could try a forced run, but it would give me a list if "Incorrect Checksums". I could run the game anyway and it seemed fine, but the controls were messed up and constantly pulled to the right. I was wondering if anyone knows a fix for this?

Um, getting the right ROMs would help.

Well if you know where I can locate the right ROM, I would appreciate it. Ever website I've seen the ROM posted on gives the same error. It would seem weird that ever ROM I find for this game online is the wrong one.

Use the clrmamepro tool. Keep on finding and dropping until you get the right set.

Thanks for the links. I will try those and see what I can find. Hopefully I can get this game working right as it was always one of my favorites. Thanks again.

Literally the first rule in the rules list:
1) Do NOT request OR post roms, rom sites, missing files, chd's, rom/chd diffs, or bios's. And don't private message people you don't know asking for them either. It's both illegal & annoying, and won't be tolerated.
Besides, your question is easily answered by the red text at the top banner in this subforum.

Moogly, I am not requesting ROMS, I am requesting help. You seem more focused on just giving me attitude. Dullaron did more to help in one reply than you have in any of yours.

You literally said: "Well if you know where I can locate the right ROM, I would appreciate it."
That is a ROM request. The banner at the top of the forum literally tells you exactly where to get the ROMs. Sorry that you're retarded, but don't take it out on me.

As he noted, the red text at the top of this forum tells you everything you need to know: ClrMAME Pro + Pleasuredome Tracker = shut up because you have perfect ROMs.

Which I'm sure will be interpreted badly by many, but many have no idea how....audacious....the posted text in the site banner is. A never-before thing. In other words, kids, pull your pants up.

I have to know, do you really repeat "hen" in real life when you laugh? If so it's a wonder nobody has 2nd degree murdered you. It's a marvel of human accomplishment. We really have come a long way. I should up and call the History Channel on the shit.

An even better an easier solution is
Usenet server+ Usenet client+ 256-bit SSL connections =
Enjoying grabbing a full set in seconds (Depending on your bandwidth)
search "MAME ROMs" using a usenet search engine and enjoy not depending on 1 site/tracker or using any on your upload.

PD torrents are pretty fast usually, and you can always let it use your uplink while you're at work/school (most clients have a time-based throttle setting).
