You don't need any installation CD.
Download the NeoGeo emulator from the archive and read the readme to know where to put your ROMS. Drag n' Drop

sotv, there is no installation CD since you don't need any special driver for the Gp2x. Just plug in a USB port of your computer, select settings->usb->sd in your Gp2x and the computer will detect a new external storage device. Drag and drop emulators and games and enjoy.

Anyway, having a card reader is highly advisable. Not only you save batteries, you also prevent frequent data corruption while using the USB connection. Card readers are really cheap today (3-5 euros or dollars)

Have you got an SD memory card plugged in the Gp2x?

If the settings->usb->sd didn't work, maybe you have an "old" PC with a USB 1.0 port. My gp2x never worked on a USB 1.0. If your PC has several USB ports, try another port or consider buying an external card reader (very advisable and only a few bucks)

Or maybe your USB cable is broken. You'll be amazed how often these cables are broken.
