When I try project64, it loads and says "what language?" I select English and the dialog box disappears... Thats it, no game

The I try Mujen, or whatever the other emu is called. It loads and then a screen pops up with blank lines. I go to select "load ROM", but it starts looking in "My documents" on my PC... Again, no way to play.

Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to download an emulator or ROMS separately?
I'm trying to play with a corded 360 controller BTW.

No one is going to be able to help you particularly well unless you read this and answer the questions.

Sorry, I'm kind of a noob here.
I wouldn't want to use teamviewer.
I am using Windows 7, with Firefox 10.0.2

The only 64 game I've tried is Goldeneye 007:
Retro Uprising - Arcade - GoldenEye 007 (http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/11559/)

both available game modes don't work, and it is the first time I tried loading a N64 game:
arcadeOX Full Mode (http://www.third.arcadeox.com/g/play.php?m=2&e=1e1h1a1j1k1X1b1p1p1T1X1K1N1Q1L1W1a1UfWWfZTbG4N3K 3Q3R3R3B3Z3P3a3d3K3U3X3Z3Y3H3L3B3S3M4i4i4g4a3c3C3y 3B4g4a4h3X2x2k2l2k2o2o2z2l2y2w2x2h2l2o2q2V2W2Z2a2x 2a2Z2X2t2e2i2w2a2d2e2h2e4b4P4n4a4K4g4e4J4d4g) » Mupen64Plus
It loads for a bit.
A box pops up on my virus scan that says some malware.gen is trying to load.
Then, Mupen 64 0.5.1 comes up, but it looks like a blank spreadsheet. I assume that the virus scan is blocking a necessary file needed to load properly.

arcadeOX Full Mode (http://www.third.arcadeox.com/g/play.php?m=13&e=1e1h1a1j1k1X1b1p1p1T1X1K1N1Q1L1W1a1UfWWfZTbG4N3K 3Q3R3R3B3Z3P3a3d3K3U3X3Z3Y3H3L3B3S3M4i4i4g4a3c3C3y 3B4g4a4h3X2x2k2l2k2o2o2z2l2y2w2x2h2l2o2q2V2W2Z2a2x 2a2Z2X2t2e2i2w2a2d2e2h2e4b4P4n4a4K4g4e4J4d4g) » Project 64
It loads, then a "Project 64" logo comes up and asks what language I would prefer.
I select English than the box disappears.

I have this exact same problem with the exact same settings.

Works for me.
Though, the controls are really awkward on the keyboard, at least for this game.

Can you try it in IE and let me know if you get different results. Thanks.

Used IE version 8.0.7601

Same thing happens, but it gets done loading faster.
Same blank menu in Mupen, and after selecting "English" as language for Project 64, it disappears.
Not a big deal. Most other systems and games work fine.
