Hahaha, if you found that a complex thing, then wait until you want to start a game from a C64 disc for example. Its a big boys forum here and i hope you know some syntax from the past.
I hope the devs leave most of the things like they are, because i liked and was very amoused how to load a game from disc on a C64. The experience was way more than simple point and click emulation .
But back to topic... if you cant start the games from the software-list, then either you dont have a full software-list romset (which is a different thing from the "normal" rom-set, like haze already said) or your path to this set is wrong (or both). Most stuff you mentioned can be everything, from bilinear filtering (which you cant find in the gui-menue) or HLSL settings (if enabled) or ther stuff. Your .ini file could help a lot more, to solve most of the problems.
