It is against forum rules to provide links to roms.

I will say I have never emulated this system but was able to find working roms easily in Google. In fact archive is where I found them in several different uploaded sets.

I just added them last week, but I don't manage to get them running with Caprice32 using the 6128 option, as it only takes me into basic and stops, doesn't load the game? Games are in .cpr format.  

[A Retro guy]

well i just download the tosec amstrad gx 4000 rom set on archive and the games are in bin and cpr formats witch caprice32 does not support but caprice32 does support zip filles and the games were aleady in zip filles so maybe the games may boot up in retroarch if i leave the games in their zip filles since the caprice32 core supports zip filles. RIGHT??????

Doubt it, Retroarch will just unzip the files in most cases that arent Arcade.

Ever heard of google?

Also you can look at the retroarch info for the core to see what file types it supports.

supported_extensions = "dsk|sna|zip|tap|cdt|voc|m3u"

[A Retro guy]

yeah i arady sreached in googole but all rom sets i found i coudnt download or were not the right file extension or just out of date or whatevers [or i condnt acess the zip without me typing a password i dont know first] also u do know u can see information like what file extensions it supports by going to load core select the core of your choice go to information then go to core information and do it like that right?

I don't run this system myself, but looking at my MAME software lists roms for that platform, they appear to be mostly dsk which should work with the Retroarch caprice64 core.

I would suggest checking out MAME software list packs for that system.

[Retro808]

It does work with caprice32 core and .cpr rom files.

In RA start the core and hit F1 to go to Quick Menu. Go to Options and change the Model to 6128+

Now try to run the game.  

[DeadVoivod]

I tried that already, doesn't work. Cap32 core, model set to 6128+, any game (not only Burning Rubber) gives me following screen:
