Umm, did you make sure the games you've downloaded a compatible with MirageOS? Basic games that have an identifier link will show up in Mirage or can be run from PRGM menu. Assembly games made for 83+/SE/84x to run in Mirage and/or ION should work. Perhaps if you post some examples of games you're trying to run will allow us to determine the cause of that problem.

Mario is a game that doesn't work, nor any bowling games.

Most bowling games are basic and won't run from Mirage (btw, what does the readme file that comes with the program say?). You can just run them from the PRGM menu. As with Mario, only send the files with .8xp extension and they should work under Mirage (also give ION a shot but I heard it doesn't seem to work on 84).

EDIT: Try installing ION and see if it works for you.

EDIT 2: If neither shell seems to work for you, give this one a shot: http://www.ticalc.org/pub/83plus/asm/shells/plasma14.zip

try arciving all your games then play mario... if a calc dosen't have more than .5 to 1K of mem it stops the game... besides Mirage can play archives games

I've heard that's a sign that you don't have any level files on there. You'd think the author of Mario would have been smart enough to have it give a "no levels found" error or something.
