Use the search function ;)

I feel like being nice today:

It's actually not that complicated, it's just that there's multiple programs. I'll give you the down-low. The two best n64 emulators are 1964 and Project64. However, if you want to play online you need Project64k. 1964 is a better emulator and has more features, but Project64 is compatible with more games. (Though, when version 1.7 comes out that should change).

You have 3 plugins: Graphics, Audio, and Input. Graphics and Audio you should leave alone, but you need to set up your Input plugin. You can set it up to the keyboard, but if you have a gamepad you can set it up to that. Then you get ROMs and start playing!

For online play in Project64k, go to File-->Start Netplay. Then join one of the servers; Emularena Grounds has the far most n64 matches. Then just start or join a game!

Both 1964 and Project64 are compatible with Ocarina of Time.

Google is a good place to search for roms.

Help from other people is limited to an extent.

I figured out everything on my own with no help at all.

took me about, 1/2 year. You'll catch on quickly, though.

Once you get then hang of using emulators, it'll be easire than buttering your bread. (which actually can be hard sometimes, depeneding on the type).

He didn't directly ask for a ROM or the location of one. All he did is state that he hasn't found one yet. No need to whip out the banned links yet. :p
