New and Had a Question

Post by missjennifer1980 »

Hi there, I'm Jenn. I had a question.. I was curious on how to get the roms to list in the program. I double click on where it's suppose to be and it goes back the "drive" letters. Please help! Thanks.

where are your roms located?

if you're using win vista or 7, hitting one of the system junction points will land you in limbo - you need to navigate to the actual path (e.g. "c:\Documents and Settings" will get you nowhere, you need to hit c:\users).

fyi, big, bold text and colors are generally met with rolling eyes and grumbling.

My roms are located in my downloads folder. I have win 7 home premium 64 bit.

so from the root, you should be able to go c:\ -> users -> username -> downloads.

if you're seeing no files listed in the left-hand pane once you're there, then zsnes isn't recognizing your ROMs (which is entirely possible if they're 7zipped or RARed). if they're compressed, decompress them.
