Yeah, I've run Chrono Cross on CD...using Pete's CD driver only...

Looking at your output there, I'd say the problem probably rests on the "Illegal request" in your CD-plugin's output. On a normal PSX, if it doesn't find the CD, it will run the BIOS...I'm thinking that your plugin is not using your CD-ROM correctly (Even if it blinks...it looks like you got SOME life out of it, but it's still confused).

My advice - Look for a game that you KNOW people are playing successfully (Chrono Cross, etc.), and keep trying different settings w/ Pete's driver - It really does seem to cover all CD possibilities. Just don't do the Auto-detect (I assume you have and it crashes). Me personally, it crashes when I do that, and I have to go to the 2nd Atapi to get it to work.

Good luck, hope that helps
