Intel processor? Try disabling DEP.

sorry again about not answering right away, i had to take care of passing candy to trick-or-treaters.

anyhow, as we were:

i dont know what you want. i'm new to this computer language stuff. do you want to know the operation system? how much RAM it has?

**jonc2006** · 3 Weeks Ago

the operating system (O/S) will do for now, we might need more info later on but we can hold off on that until its really necessary.

k, again, sorry for the late reply again. you're probably in a different time zone than me. anyhow, i'm on a windows XP 2002. i can't afford a computer with vista T.T

EDIT: i probably won't be able to reply until after about 4 hours after this post, or later. (busy; gioin' 2 church about a half hour away, and I'll have 2 clean my house when i get back, lol)

Judging from what you provided, I'd assume that your system is too weak for emulation :/

Please post your system info under:

right click 'My computer' -> 'Properties'
and tell us what CPU and RAM you have.

right click on desktop -> 'Properties' -> 'Settings'
and tell us what GPU you have.

my comp has 512 MB of RAM, and if CPU is measured in MHz, then it's 2.00 MHz. I cannot find the GPU

Fadingz · 3 Weeks Ago

MHz CPU?? :O
I really hope it's 2.00 GHz

Regardless, I don't think emulator will work for you :/
You might have to stick with your console.

oops.. yeah, it GHz. anyhow, do u think that i could put the iso on a normal disk and have it work? btw, it's legal.is there a certain way the iso's put on the disk, or don't you know?

Fadingz · 3 Weeks Ago

just run from your original disk, it should work.
Dump ISO from it is recommended, however, as the speed is much faster.

no, i put the iso on my computer to back up the game and emulate if i found a way to make the disk unplayable, which i have

Fadingz · 3 Weeks Ago

then just run from the ISO with ISO plugin.

However, if you cannot even run your BIOS, then the problem should be else where.
Did you try to redump your BIOS?

Fadingz · 3 Weeks Ago

You connect your PS1 to dump the BIOS,
how did you get your BIOS if you don't even know what 'dump your BIOS' mean? xD

um, yeah... one of my friends gave me a copy of his on a flash drive so, i had no idea what "dumping the bios" meant

Fadingz · 3 Weeks Ago

you cannot use your friend's BIOS, you need to own and dump BIOS from your own PS1.
