Ensure you don't have cheats enabled for some reason and it sounds like you're missing the graphic files as well. You're doing something wrong, I suggest rewatching the video that was posted to show you how it's done.

I believe you can get this error if you accidently patch the ips file with the ips file (instead of patching the rom with the ips file). I dont know if that messes up the file or not. Re-download and try again just to be safe
