Well it would help if you told us what kind of videocard you have.

Perhaps the required modes are really not supported by your videocard or the
version of DirectX you have installed is to old. I'm not familiar enough myself with
ZSNES to know if it can operate without DirectX, but "DirectX 7 DirectDraw" seems
like a pretty basic requirement, something ANY modern Windows PC should handle fine.

You can try upgrading your video card drivers, or at least try upgrading to the
latest version of DirectX: http://www.microsoft.com/directx

I don't know what the cause of the Project64 issue is, but it may be related.

To check what kind of hardware you have and if it's fully DirectX compatible, try:
"Start" menu -> "Run..." -> Type "dxdiag" and click OK. This should start the DirectX Diagnostic Tool.
