I updated my mame to buddabing's version and everything was working fine, but now a couple of games, maybe more aren't working nor their clones, et : Joust, Robotron.....do I need to
update the rom set and if so how do I do that.

I tried .95 before my computer went south.  IIRC Galaga still had the message, didn't it?

Yeh, .95 still had the error, but I was using Buddabing's compile which had the error messages turned off, I live the with the "wiggle the stick" to make it go  :P

BTW....it was .88 version I was running and still running

When changing MAME versions it's always advisable to audit your files to see if things have been changed.

My personal favourite ROM auditor/manager is ClrMAMEPro
http://www.clrmame.com/

It is a bit daunting at first, but luckily EasyEmu has an excellent tutorial on how use it, and what all those crazy buttons do:
