Which version of the emu are you using, and did you save the setting after changing the save type? Also, make sure that there isn't any special characters inside your game's file name.

Try using another button for Start.

Well it's not really that you are slow...all the way since Red and the other GB games the menu has come up with the start button, it's only now on the DS that they changed it to the new X button (which the prior handhelds never had). Threw me at first aswell...and still does every time I pick the game up again after a long break.
