Carl....this may also help you, this is a reply I submitted ages ago...(Re different Emu's).Think it's what your asking ....... with a bit extra

Ok i'll try and keep it plain. The machines are grouped, this means that different machines use different emulators, you cannot mix them...so lets take just one group...say MPU 3/4......you must go to the download area and download the emulator first...this is the 'hardware'...once you have done that you then want a machine....so go back to the download area and you will see a folder called 'MPU 3/4 Machines'. Open that and you will be given the option of--'Classic' (Basic Layout) 'DX' or 'PDX' (Uses real graphics)..choose say 'DX Action Bank'..Download it to a folder you will remember, then go back and download the ROM for the same machine, place the ROM in the same folder, once you have done this open the folder and unzip both the 'layout & ROM'......Now then the fun bit.....open the emulator and you will have a grey screen, click on file-load game and look for the folder where your downloaded machine is...click open and enjoy the game. Once you have downloaded one you will get the hang of it, once you have though..remember the different games run on different emulators, you can currupt a game if you try to open the machine on the wrong emulator...So I suggest creating a folder for each kind of Emu and store the layouts in the folders they belong in.

You cannot as it hasn't been emulated yet, you have to use the 'select' ROM's which you can find in the downloads section..........Don't expect too much though as it isn't the Partytime you may be used to (yet!!)
