I'm unable to start up the game. I'll press start game and it just freezes the screen.

press and hold a+b+start+select until it reboots and will get back to the same screen which is 00000/000000 (main screen with no games). then turn off /on the gba and you should have the screen where it says "update file list" and the game should be back after updating the list of file...

Hello Alicia, if I'm correct you've just passed through the music puzzle and now going down an elevator.
Notice that other enemy in there with you: the gorgon / snake woman, kill the gorgon. Do the circle command to initiate the sequence and killing the gorgon will petify the shield enemies, break them. If you failed to kill them all before they break the freeze stone, the snake woman will continue to reappear until you successful kill them when they become stone.

A simpler way to do this is try to grapple her. Just use the circle button not the combat grapple. If you do that she will try to freeze you almost every time then just counter with L1 and press what button comes up on the screen and it will freeze them.

Later on in the game you'll get the Cestus, a stronger weapon which can break them

Have fun

my nba 2k11 keeps freezing at the press start screen

Action Replay for DS doesn't support Animal Crossing game versions made before 2008.
