You need to use CLRMAMEPRO to downgrade your set. You need to pick a "new" (or old) version to go down to. You need the dat file from that version. CLRMAMEPRO is has a steep learning curve but there are some tutorials that you can watch that really help out.
Depending on where you got your roms, you may find that the website has a FAQ section. If so, you may find a tutorial there on using CLRMAMEPRO.

Here's a tutorial that shows screen shots. I haven't watched it all but it's supposed to cover it in depth.
http://www.cphsolutions.f2s.com/guides/cmprotutorial.htm
Or go to another site and look through the FAQs and there is one with screen shots and text showing what to do. This link is a video/flash tutorial. You'll watch it a few times or read the FAQ a few times to understand what to do.
