Hey all what's going on?

It's been awhile since I've been to Zelda Classic. There were some quests I would like to play but everytime the quest starts i start to move but it makes two short sounds (like if u go to a cave or a room where the old man speaks....and the sound the text is making) and then freezes. It will let me pull up the sub menu but nothing else. Am I doing something wrong? This does happen on my ex friend's laptop and I want to play some of the quests! Please help me! Thank you!

Cordially,
Nathan Bush
