Disc Switching Problems

Whenever I attempt to switch discs in games, (FF VIII, IX, Chrono Cross), I get an Illegal Operation error, and the emu shuts down. How can this be fixed? I can't progress in Chrono Cross without a fix!

Have you fried switching discs without pressing escape and going back to the Emu GUI?

Hah! Never thought of that...since there is a "switch discs" option, I thought I NEEDED to use it. I'll try right now. Be back with an update in less than half an hour.

Like my new sig?

Yeah, it's been more than half an hour. So what?

Well, unfortunately it doesn't work. I switch the discs, but it continues to say, "insert disc 2".

Any other ideas?

Have you tried using a mem card save just before the change disc, then quitting, loading the eum with the other disc, and loading the save?

One more thing I forgot to add. I have found out that it will crash on me anytime I exit the game, and try to run it again, or reset the virtual console.

Duron 800
Voodoo 3 3000
128 RAM
13 GB HD (9 allocated to win 98 SE, rest is in win 2000 and XP)
16x DVD
Built in Audio

Also, I just found out that there is a later version of the program (1.5.1) than I have (1.5.0). Perhaps this will help fix it? I'll be giving it a try...

The new version of the emu fixed it.
