Don`t expect too much from a GBA emulator for the gp32.
The compatibility is very low and if you find a game that runs, it runs very very very very slow.

Oh, and yes, solarice is right you only need the .fxe file (and a rom) to run the emulator.

i copied a ROM to my gp and GpAdvance says: ERROR: FILESIZE >4mb.
do GBA ROMS have to be less than 4mb? waht games have such a low size?

yes, they have to be less than 4mb, just like snes roms, because of the low ram of the gp32.

I don`t know which games have less than 4mb, just try some games that aren`t that complex (I think there aren`t much roms that are this small, the most of them are 8 to 16 mb big)

didn't GPAdvance get further than 1.3? I thought the later versions had better compatibility and run ROMs over 4Mb with dynamic loading. Who Wants to be a Millionaire is pretty playable for me.

Try searching the forums here for a link to the latest version (1.49?)

Wow, didn`t heard of this "dynamic loading" yet.
Can`t wait for it to be used in OSnes9X to play Tales Of Phantasia ;)

oh, btw, i hope it IS possible to use it with snes emulation?!?
