I just won't stop asking questions, won't I?

Anyway, I wanted to help ripping MMZX... Since most bosses, enemies and the like are still missing. I tried downloading the ROM, but it seems to hate me... Everytime I get to the point when I finally gain control, it stops responding and crashes... That's my first question:
Why does it do that? Had anyone else this problem?

Well, now since my ROm doesn't work, the second option is tile-ripping. That's my second question:
How does tile-ripping work on the NDS? Which programs do I need for it?

That's all. Oh, and I use DeSmuMe v.6.0.

It may seem like it crashed, but if you wait a while and press a lot of buttons, then the game might continue. Also, try disabling some layers- you might be able to see text with nothing but a black background.

Not sure how to tile rip, though.

No, it really crashes. Everytime I hold the mouse over the window, it turns into it's window-size-changing-form, and I can't even move/rezize the window. Also, after about 5 minutes, Windows tells me that a problem has occured and the program has to be closed.

Erm, I do think that's your rom. If you head to some other sites, download another. Mine was "ROM-ed" by Legacy and was 31.33MB zipped.

I don't have a site with ROMs. I won't send it to you on msn, Terry, 'cause ROMs are illegal.

Not needed. I tried it with iDeaS(Thanks Tox!) and I got past the intro. But another problem occured: The up- and down-keys aren't working for some reason...

Here's a starter, Post #5. I'll be amending this with pictures are specifics.
