If your trying to use RomCenter to run this game directly it won't work. RomCenter is not an emulator.
If trying to use RomCenter to launch an emulator make sure it supports direct game selection through command line.
If you need an emulator try 1964 (Probably the best available) or Project64 (Works well with older computers and graphics cards/onboard graphics).

Make sure you've set up the Emulator path and parameters in RomCenter.
Go to Files > preferences and click on the romsets tab.
Emulator exe - browse to your Project64 directory and select Project64.exe
Now place %3 in the parameter settings.

This works for me. If you still have problems it's probably a corrupt or bad rom.

1. This is the Romcenter board - keep it on topic (we have an forum for this)
2. Dont request roms
3. Read the documentation of the Emulator
4. Verify your rom using e.g. Romcenter + the correct dat file.
5. If it still not works, change the Emulator, read the documentaion again
6. Post questions on the boards of the Emulator
