I can't play the SMBj2 movie on the site. I keep getting an error "Unkown opcode FF at 00F9". Any help? And just to note the Famtasia is the one from this site.

You sure you have the FDS version of the game? If it originally had a .nes extension, it's not the right one. And just to state the obvious, I think I need to say: - The movie file is not the actual game. You need to load the actual game, then the movie. And you know, the FDS issues are also explained in our often undervalued FAQ: http://tasvideos.org/FDS.html

Both of your questions are answered in the FAQ. Well, sort of answered. FDS images are different from NES images in that they are usually named .fds, not .nes, and that you also need a disk system BIOS image (usually named as disksys.rom for emulators). Do not ask us (the author of this site or the people at the nesvideos forum) to send you ROMs or FDS images. Any such messages will be deleted.

Completely lost with disk system BIOS images and disksys.rom. Can you walk me throught this or does it fall under the "Do not ask us (the author of this site or the people at the nesvideos forum) to send you ROMs or FDS images. Any such messages will be deleted." disclamer?

You must place the bios file (disksys.rom) to the directory where the Famtasia's INI file is.

In the same directory the EXE is. (Assuming you have started and exited Famtasia at least once.)

The Famtasia icon is right in this folder C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxxxx's\Desktop\xxxx's Folder\Emulators\Famtasia I don't thinks it's anywhere else.

So right-click the icon, choose properties, and check the filepath. This is where your Famtasia files are most likely located. This is also where you would like to place the bios-files.

Come again? You have renamed WHAT file to disksys.rom? If you have the real disksys.rom file, place it in the same directory as your other Famtasia files. You can find the directory by right-clicking your famtasia icon and choosing properties.
