When MAME fails like that, more than likely, missing files are the reason. MAME is looking for files, it cannot find them and then it quits.
Try running the executable from a command line. If files are missing, you will see what files MAME is expecting and which files it cannot find.
Also, know this - MAME ROM sets change. The games that you are trying to run may not have complete ROM sets (MAME will also tell you this when you try to run a game from the command line)
Lastly, running MAME on an XP machine with 4GB RAM is just asking for headaches. Windows needs 4GB alone to run without any issues. Now you are adding MAME. I've never used MAME on an XP machine but can only imagine this not turning out good. But, I could be wrong.
