When you say "run the exe", do you mean you just double clicked it, or did you try to run it per the author's instructions? menafen is a command line only emulator, and it generates no output if you just run it with no arguments. It works fine on Windows 7, I use it to emulate Virtual Boy. The fact it's 32bit means nothing. Even if you are running a 64bit OS, it can still run 32bit software fine.

mednafen doesn't have a gui (grahpic user interface), what I do to test games is drag a rom into the .exe. That will launch the game and emulator. When you set it up through hyperspin (set up the directory to the exe and the rom directory) hyperspin will have no issues launching it.
When you are testing, you need to pres alt + shift + 1 to setup player one's controls (alt +shift + 2 for player 2) (you have to press each button direction 2x, this was done so you can have two things controlling player one, i.e. arcade panel and joypad).
If you want it fullscreen you need to go into the "ini" file and edit it. If you use 5 and 1 for start and select, then you need to edit the ini to not have 5 and 1 control the save states.
Remember, to test it by draggin the rom into the exe.
Mednafen is the most reliable emulator for several systems and lets you do fullscreen for some system including game gear and lynx (I think)
bkenobi:
The documentation doesn't list GameGear, but it does do all the Gameboy's other than DS.

I could have sworn it allowed game gear, it doesn't hurt to try just to double check. I won't be able to check on my setup this weekend.
