Best emulator for Paper Mario?

[msw]

I have only tried PJ64 1.6 (well, I also tried Mupen64, but I can't get it to work at all), but noticed that there is an epileptic seizure-inducing flickering problem in most of the toad town areas.

My question is, is there an emulator that works well with Paper Mario?

I also have a suggestion (loosely related) that would require a lot of work: A comprehensive compatibility chart of N64 emulators and known ROMs. This could save a lot of headache for newbies like me who don't know the ins and outs of emulation yet.

what is your computer specs and i will tell ya

I know I need to get a video card for most emulators. Is there one that emulates PM well using integrated video? I

OS: Windows XP PRO SP 2

CPU: Intel P4 3.2 Ghz

integrated video-when I go to change my screen resolution it says "...Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family"

Memory: 1024 MB DDR2 SDRAM

Sound Card: Integrated audio-I don't care about the sound so much

To play Paper Mario, the best PLUGIN would be this.
However, don't expect it to run flawlessly on that video card of yours.

The test program for that wrapper failed miserably. Guess I need to buy a decent video card if I want to play PM properly...Any suggestions on one that will work but isn't too expensive?

Geforce 6XXX series or raedon equalient would be the best card to get now that can actually play other things then emulation.

Geforce 6XXX series or raedon equalient would be the best card to get now that can actually play other things then emulation.

But I don't care about anything other than emulation. I want the cheapest way to be able to play my N64 games without having a seizure or getting a bunch of graphics errors. I can't afford to buy video games on top of an expensive video card. I am a graduate student with a 4 year old, so I don't have much spare money.

Well, I think that a simple Geforce 4 might just do the trick, but I urge you to get a little better card if Pj 1.7 bumps the requirements and for future reference. Thes absolute minmum would then be Geforce FX (very crappy cards) or raedon equality (good cards).
Check newegg and see what cards are available.

would a 3D Fuzion (I guess this is a crappy brand) Geforce 6200 be a good choice? it's listed on newegg at 27.99, very affordable.

One of my limitations is that I don't have a PCIE x16 OR AGP slot on my motherboard, so it's either regular PCI or PCIE x1.

I would think it will suffice. I will look out a graphics card chart and see.
