Can anyone help me on this.
I downloaded the full rom set for snes, but when I try to load a rom on Pocket Snes the screen just goes blank.
Tried it on Squidge and it just goes straight back to the menu screen.
Both applications do work with other roms i got individually.
Tried a load of different roms but none work. Could they just all be corrupt.

Cheers
 
Bear in mind that not all ROMS work on the emulators you mention, in fact, many won't. If you are getting back to the menu or the screen goes black, it will only mean five things - 1) The ROM in question is not supported. 2) The ROM name has blanks or may be too long - try it with up to 8 characters, no spaces. 3) The files you have are zipped, unzip them. 4) The ROMS are USA/Japan/Europe and your emulator isn't set for this. 5) The ROMS are bad.

Hope this helps!
 
Thanks a lot mate.
I'll try a couple of things you said and see if it works.
Cheers
 
It could also be you have too many ROMs in the same directory/folder...
Try putting only ones that you feel like playing. And make sure to delete ROMs that have [b1],[b2] etc in the filename... I don't know why collectors like to preserve bad dumps...
