You probably haven't either extracted the ROMs from their archives. If you actually have, try downloading them from a different place.

how do u extract it from its archive and can you tell me other sites where i can download roms?

DO NOT

* Ask where to download ROMs, ISOs or BIOSes

You just broke the cardinal rule.

Well, what is the extension? Is it zip, rar, 7z or something else? Google for WinRAR, install it and use it extract the contents of the archive to your roms folder. WinRAR works with Zip and 7-Zip files too, so you don't need to get WinZip as well.

Winrar does not work with every 7z file and 7zip does not work with every rar file. Both utilities are recommended.

Winrar does not work with every 7z file and 7zip does not work with every rar file. Both utilities are recommended.

Good to know.

why extract if pj64 open zip files? if is rar or 7z you'll have to extract and zip them.

 

[Agozer]

why extract if pj64 open zip files?

You don't have to. Some people prefer them unzipped though.
