smc means that they are Snes roms, you're trying to run Snes games in an N64 silly.

N64 is also a valid extension... I think BIN was the third type, can't remember. Not sure if Surreal cares if the extension is set correctly (a Z64 ROM is actually in a different format to a N64 ROM, for example).

Yuo have tried telling Surreal to refresh the ROM list... Right?
