Ok then what format is your game in, because I do believe N64 can be used in zipped format.

You have an i7-7700HQ…you own a laptop…

Did you make sure to select NVIDIA as the GPU in your NVIDIA Control Panel settings rather than “Automatic” or “Integrated”?

To answer the initial issue, you need to check the documentation of the Mupen64+ core. By default it uses the GlideN64 plugin…which requires OpenGL drivers to be enabled. You’ll need to load the core without content to change the plugin setting.

ParaLLEl uses Vulkan

And Angrylion uses DirectX

only thing i can do is change drivers, i'm not seeing any of the options the website is saying and i went through them all with the core loaded.

If you want some helpful hints look at this wiki, angrylion is recommended for use. https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Recommended_N64_plugins

And no Angrylion DOES not use Direct X it uses OpenGL 3.3 as described in this document.
