Post subject: Why won't any SNESX9 emulators work on my computer?

Whenever I try to use one, it simply crashes as soon as I load any ROM and says... "SNESXW has quit working" And then it says something along the lines of... "A problem has caused this program to stop working. Windows is trying to find a solution to this problem". Now, I am using Windows Vista, so I'm wondering if that might have anything to do with the problem. I have done this with both the latest version of 1.43 and what I assume was the latest version of 1.51. Does anybody know how I can solve this problem?

Perhaps you are trying to load something that isn't a ROM?

If something has ".smc" at the end, that means it's a rom, right? I've been doing that.

Oh, hey, nevermind, I figured it out. It turns out, it has to be in a folder that the emulator forms called "Roms" in order to work...huh. Most emulators don't require that, but, hey, at least it's working :)! EDIT: Ok, and now it's not working again, despite me doing the exact same thing...sigh.

It shouldn't matter where the ROM is for snes9x 1.43 and 1.51 Where did you get your emulator version? If from here: http://code.google.com/p/snes9x-rr/downloads/list what version did you get specifically?
