VBA, crashing before it starts.

[bluehaze56]

I've recently downloaded Visual Boy Advance, tried to run it, and it almost crashed my computer. After I clicked on it, the hourglass came up for a few seconds and then "Visual Boy Advance has encountered a problem and needs to close." Then my computer would barely respond for a few minutes then everything would be ok. I'm running XP, and I've looked over quite a few installation tutorials/FAQs with no luck.

Oh, and also a Norton alert pops up when windows starts to work again, says I'm being intruded from my own IP. This may be my problem, but I downloaded it from the VBA website, linked from here. I also disabled Norton to try and run it, and still nothing. Any Ideas?

You are talk about Zelda the phantom hourglass ? O.o

It is for NDS emulator. This is for GBA emulator. Wrong emulator. Use iDeaS 1.0.2.0 or no$gba 2.5c

Oh, no, I meant my mouse turns into an hourglass, nothing comes up at all.

[azoreseuropa]

Oh... Show a screenshot so I can understand better.

[bluehaze56]

Well, I would, but nothing comes up at all, theres nothing to see.. So I guess you don't know whats going on either.

eh, oh well.
