    that's exactly the process here, the difference is you have to use winrar to extract the roms. The other site probably used .zip files, which windows XP can open without needing a program (or you might have used winzip). We use .rar files, which are conceptually the same as zip files, only they compress better. Windows cannot open .rar files by itself, so you need winrar from www.rarlabs.com installed to be able to extract the rar files. there is a winrar tutorial in our tutorials section if you need help using it.
