To add to Richard's post, since it's not straightforward with that emulator:

• I downloaded Emu48 version 1.64 from here
• the rom location has been mentioned above
• I installed Emu48
• I placed the rom dump file rom.48g into a subdirectory ROM
• Jemac's Gx skin suits me best, I edited JEMAC.KML and changed the "Rom" line to: Rom "ROM/rom.48g" (not necessary if you place the dump in the main directory with the same name, but I find it messy)
• I launched Emu48.exe (it may complain if it was installed before, unfortunately its settings are in the registry and unique to all versions and flavours)
• I selected Current KML Script: Jemac's Gx
  

This launch the emulator with the proper rom and skin. From there,

• File / Save As... and I saved the state into 48g.e48 (in the installation directory)
• I created a shortcut (in my PATH so I can launch it from the keyboard, it's optional) with the Target: (installation directory)\EMU48.EXE 48g.e48
  

From there, the shortcut launches the proper calculator directly without having to choose the script each time.
Hope it helps.

Note that if you want to install Emu49 for the HP-50g emulator, it conflicts with Emu48 so you have to choose one of them. Each is only compatible with their respective calculator's ROM dump and KML script, but both share the same registry settings. At least that's what I experienced, I didn't bother but I suppose it's possible to find the sources to fix this.
