hi, following are the specs of my laptop:

windows xp + service pack 3
mobile amd sempron 3400+ (1.79GHz)
448 MB RAM
ati radeon xpress 1150 with 256 MB memory
and other typical peripherals...

i have Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town (USA) cartridge and i want to play it on pc, mainly for cheats

how can i do that and which emulator would be best for me ?

thanks...

for all GBA emulation needs it's best to use VBA or VBA-M
cheating is simple, we won't even have to explain it once you take a look at the emu as it's all pretty self-explanatory

I prefer Visual Boy Advance for my emulation needs in the Gameboy Advance aspect. It's really simple and easy to use. I have yet to have experience anything negative from it. Trust me, if I can use it then anyone can. Lol.

try playing yugioh Gx bios errors..... heh

 

[SCHUMI_4EVER]

What? I have never experienced a single error playing that game...

 

[Squall-Leonhart]

occurs at startup
not on vba-m or 1.8 though

 

[SCHUMI_4EVER]

ah, well then that explains it, I have only used VBA-M or 1.8 and later on it.

thanks !! will try both VBA n VBA-M... but how can i transfer the game on my laptop ?? or is it fine if i download the ROM off the net as i own the cartridge ?

These days most ROM dumping methods revolve around using a DS which is a lot easier than the methods that required soldering from the GBA days. I am afraid I can't find a guide anymore for the GBA only dumping method and I myself have been using a DS for so long that I forgot how the method works so I can't explain it.

And no I am afraid it's not legal (and therefore against forum rules) to download any ROM off the net even if you do own an original cartridge of the game, only your own personal backup dumps are legal and only for your own use.

hmmmm... alright then, i'll try to look elsewhere about dumping...

thanks !
