CHD ROM was working fine... Now, for no discernable reason, it does not?

I had a CHD-converted ROM working fine on my MAME .224 *STABLE* release, but then it just stopped working.
There has not been an upgrade past my Win 10 20H release... nor should there of been any updates since I froze their update service until Tuesday, the 22nd.
no, I don't know of any recent emergency security updates that Microsoft would shove down my throat since I installed original MAME installation.
After three hours of trying to figure out what's changed, I reinstalled MAME from scratch, EXCEPT preserving customized segacd.xml hash file I got from jmonlive (to include rom also given to me by my friend as part of his appended-to software list), customized cheat.7z, and cut'n'paste ROMS directory from old installation and added DAT directory's MAMEINFO.DAT from there as well.
Am I stupid?
Is the proper directory for Sega CD ROM the "segacd" subdirectory under MAMEUI's ROMs directory or was I just almost correct in syntax, but just slightly off?
