Ok, first you need to find and download a GBA emulator. I recommend Virtual Boy Advance. Then, install your emulator, preferably in the same directory as the ROM, and open the ROM from inside your emulator.

I fear the monkey in your soul.

I don't know what VirtualBoyAdvance is, but heres the link to download the newest up-to-date version of VisualBoyAdvance (What Chupperson meant to say). VisualBoyAdvance also runs .gb and .gbc files too. (Gameboy and Gameboy Color files.

Woo hoo! You guys are awesome, now, what type of file is a N64, like Zelda,:Ocarina of Time or Mario Kart?

There are three types. .n64, .v64, and .g64. But most emulators only run two or three types. But the Nintendo64 emulator that will run all three of those is Project64. Which is what I think is the best N64 emulator out there and it is availiable at www.pj64.net. If you want to know anything else about emulators just e-mail me by clicking the mailbox icon above my post.

Heh. When I saw the title, I thought you meant you got a GBA UNIT and didn't know how to play it! I was just about ready to reply "Uhhhh, try putting a game(you know, the cartridge-shaped thingies) in the big open slot and flip the 'ON' switch, maybe?", when I actually read your POST!
