probably you are missing BIOS files.

From the image, it seems as if the BIOS files are included within the game zip file. Since the default mode is "BIOS split" (BIOS files will reside in a separate zip file), RC detects that and points out that the BIOS files should be removed from the game zip. The game is playable as is but it's just a waste of space to have BIOS roms in all game zips. "FIX" will just delete them from the game zip.

Remember that the BIOS zip file should exist inside the same folder as the game zips. Maybe that's why MAME tells you that the BIOS roms are missing from the game.

I have all the bios files in the same folder as the roms it's like Romcenter can't see my Bios files. romcenter 3.7.1 did not have this problem for me is there some way I can send you a log or something to show you what it's doing?

I think this is indeed a bios problem. You must fix all your files to force rc to create a neogeo.zip file.
If you only fix one file, bios files are deleted because they're still exists in another game.
