    Sorry it took so long, but here we go. 1. You wanna go to www.pj64-emu.com there's a huge "download here" that will download the setup which you then need to run to install the emulator (I also choose to have an icon on the desktop). 2. You go to https://wowroms.com/de/roms/nintendo-64/super-mario-64-usa/24979.html to download the super mario 64 rom for the emulator, here I have pre-chosen the USA version for you, there's a European version too, they're all basically the same tho, you just get different language options sometimes. Click the green "download rom" button and it will download the rom in a zip file for you. Open the zip file and extract it (don't forget where you put it tho) 3. When you run the Project64 emulator for the first time you get to choose if you want to run it on a modern PC or an older one, I chose modern, but if your PC or laptop is old then you might want that. You can test out the options and if it doesn't work you can reinstall it and try again with the next option. 4. When you click on finish a blank window will pop up for you, there you go to "File" in the top left corner and choose "Open ROM" and browse your PC for the Super Mario 64 file we had downloaded and extracted earlier. Choose the file, click on open and your game should run. 5. Then if you like you can configure your buttons, so if you play with mouse and keyboard you can assign the keys from your keyboard to perform a certain action that would usually be done with the button on the controller and if you have a controller you can plug into the computer you can also assign the buttons to your controller the same way. For that go to options and then choose "Input settings". Try it out a little bit and see what's most comfortable for you or you can leave it as it is and play with the preassigned options. Hope that helps and if you have any questions lmk! You can also look for other ROMs and download other games, there's a ton of them.
