Well, the emulator Nintendo 64 has the wrong emulator directory for one. I dont think that has anything to do with the rest of the stuff. But you can try and fix that while you wait for someone else whith more knowledge of that stuff to help.

The working path should not have the PJ64.exe in it. only the path.

I think the work path is set to "G:\project64". I don´t have a g: drive so thats kind of odd, I let gameex downlaod all the emulators, so i assumed that the installer would set the paths right... And now i can´t seem to find where the downloaded emulators went... Is ther a default directory for this?

Default is C:\Emulators and no it doesn't set the paths for you. It shouldn't have G: drive if your using the included configs (under Emulator Selection/Emulator Setup in the Setup Wizard)

[LB11]

Every time I installed gameex it had a lot of things default to the G: drive. I haven't installed a new version since the late version7 I think.

And I dont know how hard it would be for you HK, but in a future release of the setupwizard, maybe you could have the paths default to where they choose to download the emulators.
