A GBA emulator that works well with the X51v is available here.

*EDIT: the link seems to be not working, let me check it.

*EDIT2: okay, the link is now working again.

As rbg08 has linked in, PocketGBA is the way to go. Other GBA emus are definitely worse. You may also want to read my GBA emulator roundup at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/ind...&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

Note that asking for illegal ROM's is not really liked in this forum.

The only way of legally acquire them is reading them from your own cartridges and/or getting the ROM's of the games you own.

When I copy Pocket GBA over to my PDA and run it, it tells me "PocketGBA cannot be opened, either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its componets cannot be found." Copied all the files over, weird.

Did you download FMODCE? Download it, unzip 'FMODCE' and copy 'fmodce.dll' to 'Windows' directory in your PocketPC device.

MorphGear is also an excellent emulator for PPC.

While we're on the subject of pocketGBA, I have a problem.

I'm attempting to run POkemon Emerald. I start up pocketGBA, load the rom, hit 'run', it gives me a brief flash on the screen and then nothing. Any ideas?

Yes, you must have at least as much free program RAM on your device as the size of the ROM you are trying to load.
