    Default Trouble Running ONLY Pokemon ROMs on VBA

    Hello,

    I'm using the VisualBoy Advance emulator. I have many ROMs that run perfectly fine (Donkey Kong, Tales, Mario, Sonic, etc.), but I seem to be having trouble with any Pokemon ROM. I download the file, unzip it to the same folder all my other VBA files are in, but when I go to open the game, the emulator just displays a blank white screen. The ONLY exception is this particular file, which is from another website. I notice that it may be a different file type, judging by the [a1] after its name...For some reason, it will proceed past the "start" screen, only to freeze up after saying something about a circuit board component:

    I would consider changing emulators, if VBA weren't the only one I could get to run on my Windows 7 laptop. And, as I said, these Pokemon files (Fire Red, Emerald, etc.) are the only ROMs I can't seem to run. Can anybody offer any help?
