I think you need to post a *little* bit more information before any type of solution could be posted.

What steps have you tried to resolve this?

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.

You still don't offer much information, so it's doubtful the RB experts will be able to help you.
Try reading this link from BlueBrother's sig file: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Be as descriptive as possible and be sure to run a spell check before you post so that this thread is accessible by translator programs.

Good luck!

Does it give you any errors when it does boot? or does it boot straight in Apple's OF?


Also, please remember to use real words, such as nevermind in place of "nvm". This helps people who don't speak English as their native language and those who use text-to-speech programs.

It boots straight into Apple's OS...but i read the other thread and I held "menu+Select" a few times, and it works now :D

Thanks guys!

by the way...what are the controls for the RockBoy?

like is the menu button equal the a button on the gameboy color?
