lots of roms, lots of problems!

To all who can help:
I would consider myself a newbie, so any info that one may take for granted should probably not be left out of any replies.
System Specs:
Celeron 800
256MB RAM
20GB HD (7200rpm)
ATI Radeon 7200 (S-video out to 2?" Mitsubishi TV)
MAME (newest version as of 1/1/05)
Game Launcher (newest version as of 1/1/05)
I have approximatly 3500 roms, give or take a couple houndred. They are all placed in a folder named "roms" in my mame directory. I am using Game launcher (simply because i can not get arcade os to load). I have disabled the "auto list" option in game launcher so it scans my "roms" folder before each load (this is intentional as i plan on running the "MoshaCade" 24/7/365.
So, with that being said, here is the scoop: Game Launcher would only launch about 1 out of every 20 or so games (give or take 100!!), so i did a little googeling and found myself at romcenter.com (the website you are currently viewing) I have downloaded the romcenter app and datafile. Now what? I ran the scan, i ran the "select all" "fix", and i ran the "rezip" runction. I have currently about 3% of my games showing as a green color, about 25% as a RED color, and the rest in a grey color? What do these mean? What am i to do? Please help.
Thanks in advance: Edward
