So I just started using Mupen64. The program works fine, until I load a ROM, but then the UI becomes a paperweight. Clicking on any of the menus does nothing. Clicking the buttons at the top right corner to exit out doesn't work. The roms are running fine, good framerate and all, and all the keyboard shortcuts still work, but for some reason I can't use the menus once the game is running. Any thoughts?

I have no problems using it on XP, Vista, and 7.

I was sort of hoping for some kind of advice on how to fix it. When I very first started Mupen, it also had an unbearably slow frame-rate, but after fiddling a bit and changing which graphics plug-in I was using, it's getting a decent frame rate. So I was hoping there would be a similarly easy fix for the problem I mentioned in this thread, like some inproperly set settings.

Try re-downloading and reinstalling. Make sure you are using mupen64-rr v8.

Where did you downloaded the emulator? You should most likely download it from here

I got rid of Mupen shortly after making this thread. But I re-downloaded it today and am still having problems with it. less than 4 fps, error messages, etc. I also downloaded Project64 today and it runs pretty well, but it doesn't seem to have any of the tools Mupen does, and as a TAS enthusiast that is problematic.
