3. Good to know
- These machines often boot to a command prompt: the game is launched with a command, not a menu.
- Emulation speed matters: too fast and the software becomes unplayable. Look for the speed or cycles setting.
- The keyboard is the main input device; the emulated layout may differ from yours.
4. Not working?
- Game doesn't appear → check that its extension is among the formats listed above.
- Software runs too fast or too slow → adjust the emulation speed before anything else.
