Hi there.
I assume you mean that you have 2 separate folders A and B, containing games from the same system, and you have "fixed" them with romcenter using the same DAT file.
If that's the case, copy all files from B to A WITHOUT overwriting any existing files. That way, any games that do not exist in folder A will be copied there. Then create a new RC database from the dat file and add both A and B folders as ROM folders in RC. Then simply fix folder A. Make sure to use fix options "rename files", "rename rom" and more important, "import missing rom". After that, folder A should contain a merge of all your games. Check if everything is OK by writing down how many green/yellow/reds you have in the "DATABASE\all games" branch, then remove folder B from RC ROM folders and check if something has changes in the color counts. If not, you're OK.
If that is NOT the case, please clarify.
