Is is crashing after you select a game and hit play?
If so, I think I know the problem. The emulators are assuming you have some type of color display and becuase your display is Black and White the EMU can't find the proper BPP depth, so it crashes trying to access the screen at a depth that is not supported. I know MameCE3 defaults to 8BP depth and a B/W screen only has 2BP.

Perhaps Darren can comment on this. I know he helped someone with a B/W Casio device from Japan at one time.
