Gnuboy Probs

[Guest seteo-bloke]

Hi guys,

I've only just got myself a E100 so be gentle!. :D

I've got the PocketNES to work great, but for some reason I can't get the Gnuboy to run. I click it and I just get a constant white screen, just seems to crash.

Anyone got any ideas on this?.

Thanks in advance!. ;)

Welcome to the site ;)

Try pressing the record button, this controls some emulators :wink:

Thanks for the welcome and also the reply. :D

Unfortunately, still no go with using that record button either. :lol:

Seems to hard lock my phone and have to remove the battery to power it down.

There needs to be at least one rom in the same directory as gnuboy.exe

If it gets "stuck" press the home-button .. start up Task Manager and "kill the gnuboy process"

Yep, you'r blank white screen is cos it's not finding any roms

They must be name *.gb* and in the exact same directory as the gnuboy.exe. If you think you have this right, also check that on your start menu it is a shortcut to the exe and not a whole copy of the exe.

When it comes up with this blank list pressing the action button (middle of the joypad) should select no rom and gnuboy will exit.

Hope that solves the problem... I spose I should really put a "No ROMs found" message in there...

Its normal... The SPV only features a 132mhz CPU, and that isen't enought to run GnuBoy at full speed!

Gnuboy runs real nice for rpg style games like Dragon Warriors, Zelda and Pokemon. Action games are not so hot... hopefully much more playable on next generation devices such as the Mio or Motorola, or SPV2 with faster processors.
