     You are missing a ROM file (like Apple2.rom, Apple2e.rom, Apple2c.rom). 
You do not need all of them; but, you do need the ROM file for the kind of
Apple II you want to emulate. For most 8-bit Apple II emulators, the best
choice is to emulate the Apple IIe.

     You can find ROM image files on Asimov at ...

ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/emulators/rom_images/ .

     Not without additional hardware (e.g. a Trackstar E board) plugged into
your PC.
