Sorry if this is a huge noob question, but i can't seem to find an avalible SM64 ROM on any major websites besides ROMsmania, and that one's file ends in .exe
Is that okay? Because ive heard that it can be a virus if its an executable.
Doesn't seem right. You should keep googling until you get a file in a zip folder. I don't have it in front of me so I'm not sure what file type but .exe is probably a virus.
I should add that after i downloaded the .exe ROM my AVG Antivirus detected it and put it in quarintine lol
Yeah, ROMs should be in a .zip file. A .exe ROM is most likely a virus-infested installer.
on this site u got all the romhacks (and original, just scroll down or search via ctrl+f) prepatched as an .z64 file-ending :) hf!
A .exe is short for executable file. Roms will NEVER come in .exe, A lot of console s don't use .exe files to store their game. With n64 games, it will most likely come in a .zip folder, (although this is not always the case,) and inside will be a .z64 or .n64 file. If it is a .exe, get rid of it as soon as possible, as there is no way it could be an n64 rom sm64hacks.com, (as defqon_jan) posted is pretty reliable. I hope this answers most questions.

A .exe in this case seems like a virus, if I was you, I would remove it and try something like https://sites.google.com/site/supermario64download/Home/download-super-mario-64 or http://sm64hacks.com/hack.php?id=1
bumping a thread that has already been solved?
aren't you too busy faking your 0 star runs?
