Perhaps try Netscape if you are using IE, or IE if you are using netscape or upgrade your browser. The submit/upload function uses some technology that is fairly "new" to old browser technology but was introduced a pretty long time ago, it should work pretty well on an up to date browser.

It is also possible that you've run into a posting problem, were no sites will post any html form. I've run into this problem sometimes using a cable router/modem. I can browse and click links just fine but when i click submit buttons I get DNS errors.

what is the error that you get when this happens?

I“m having the same problem.

If this is a DNS problem you're seeing, sometimes windows crappy 8 browsers when submiting an html form say to post action=/index.cgi will try to access /index.cgi on a undefined host name (since marp.retrogames.com/index.cgi is defined /index.cgi is not) and thus you're trying to find a computer name that does not exist and you cannot post. note i have no idea what causes this but sometimes when i close IE or retry or reboot and it appears to work.
