The ROMS need to be in the BIOS directory. There are two ways to do 
this. 1) Place the zip files in the BIOS directory. 2) Create specific 
sub-directories (ex. coco3h - for the 6309 ROM) and unzip the ROM files 
into the sub-directory.

In the case of the coco 6309, the files would be coco3.rom and 
disk11.rom. There won't be any indication of the Hitachi chip in the 
file name.

If MESS still can't find the ROMs, click on Options (gui menu bar) and 
select directories. Look at the BIOS entry and if necessary Insert a 
specific reference to the location of your BIOS files.
