To make a long story short, Mame updates itself every so often. When it is updated, many of its romsets are also updated to reflect the proper emulation of the said games in question.
If you download a new version of mame and you get that error message about missing roms, you must update your romset for the game(s) in question that you want to play, or the game(s) in question will not work.
