Anything is possible and I'm no mameDEV by any means, but I have run many different versions of MAME on 4 different PCs plus a laptop and have never encountered APPCRASH ever.

Geforce 6 series, Are you kidding me? seriously?

If it was a problem with the MAME code then more reports of this happening would surely surface, but it seems to be a rare occurrence or happen to just a small percentage of people.

I'm betting that it's a combination of the following.

- legacy hardware
- outdated and X86 O/S
- user doesn't know how to properly maintain their computer
- faulty hardware and instabilities with system
- etc. etc. etc.
