I think your files and directories maybe messed up!
I think BeebEm 1.41 is an Excellent Freeware product; it's a credit to all
the developers that have worked on the project. Thanks Guys!
Don't confuse DFS or other Master/Beeb Roms, a DFS Rom for the Master will
not work on the Beeb. This is the same for the emulator.
Make sure you have all your Beeb and Master Rom images in separate
directories, a \M128 directory is installed by default. Install all the
Master ROM images in that directory, all your Beeb Rom images in another
directory eg \BBC.
And then edit the roms.cfg accordingly.
Couldn't be simpler!
Here's a Master DFS 2.45 (don't load it into the Beeb!)
http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/bbc/rom/Acorn/os/MOS+3.50.zip
If you download this OS rom, unzip, and you'll find Master DFS 2.45.

PS I've got more bugs in Microsoft Operating Systems, which my business has
paid good money for and a support contract, which still go unfixed! I don't
think you can complain about BeebEm!
