Give ZXSpectr a try.

Spectrum, an old emulator by Pedro Gimeno.

It's a very old format, that brings memories of early nineties and my first Spectrum emulator
which was for me (and many other people here I guess) the work of Pedro Gimeno.

Why do you need to use it? Do you have some rare treasures stored in it?

By the way, anybody knows who is/was Pedro Gimeno?

Thank you for the quick replies!
I have the TOSEC set and it's got Pentagram in there!

Pedro IS a smart guy born in a town named Algemesí, near to Valencia (Spain). I know Pedro from many years ago. Sadly, isn't interested in retro scene.

A pity.

I remember his emulator, the first I've ever used, back in 1993. It was slow and games sometimes failed, but the idea of playing Spectrum games on a PC, with instant loading and saving snapshots were amazing!

SnapConv can convert .sp to other formats, if you need it
