Next time post this question in the software forum; however, did you try using ClrMamePro to update the romset?

Did you get any warnings when you went to play the games that don't work?

Perhaps they changed the naming of the game, or a romfile within the set.  And sometimes games get broken when a driver is changed in the mame core.  A bit more explaination of error messages would help.
