Can you post the gameex log?

You should get in the habit of always posting your GameEx log BTW.

Hi cnells,

Just to clarify, you mention that your shortcut leads to a folder (rather than the game executable). If that's truly the case, it won't work. Your ROM directory should point at a directory containing shortcuts (.lnk files). The shortcuts themselves should point at the actual executables which launch the game(s). Your command line will be something along the lines of "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"

Protip: The Verify Setup output from the Setup Wizard isn't all that helpful for troubleshooting emulator issues. In a case like this your GameEx.ini (or single emulator config) would probably be a bit better in terms of seeing the underlying issue. ;)

I've been seeing this a few times lately. Your directory separator is pointing the wrong direction (you're using UNIX notation there ;))

So instead of

"[ROMPATH]/[ROMFILE]"

It should be

"[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
