GBAoid on NC problems

Ok, so I have my nook color rooted, I have downloaded some apps including GBAoid, RomGripper, and I have an SDcard to store roms for the emulator. I am able to run and play the roms just fine, where the problems lie is that I am unable to access the GBAoid menu options so that I can save/load quicksaves, turn on frame skip, or more importantly adjust the onscreen controls. Has anyone else found a way to access the menu to make these adjustments?!

Thank you all in advance.

Button Savior, its an app that puts a tiny tab on top of all screens, when pushed pops out a little menu of buttons including home, menu, search, and back.
 
Like I mentioned Button Savior is a tiny tab that always hovers on the edge of your screen, very unintrusive.

Soft keys works different, its more of a launcher replacement, but still allows you to use your own launcher (ADW, Launcher Pro, Zeam, etc) It includes a 'popper' which i a floating dot that is suimilar to Button Savior but is a bit more noticable and intrusive (IMHO). The other thing it does, is the option of when you press "N" once it takes you to a menu of the said buttons, press N twice and takes you to your home screen.

Try both and se what you like. For me Button Savior is cleaner looking, more responsive and more stable. SK would lag a bit, and sometimes not bring up the menu, but go to my home screen, couple little glitches like that.

Good luck! :p
