ePSXe Problem

Jsweet2k2 · January 11th, 2003

Hey, I have a problem with ePSXe. When i open it, I get an error box that says..

-Conagent.exe-

Properties for this program cannot be verified.
The APPS.INF file is missing. Copy the APPS.INF file from your
Windows Setup disks into your Windows INF folder.

and then when i go to load my PSX CD, the box is black and i have to Atl+Ctrl+Delete it just to get it off, and in the ePSXe box thing, it said...

"Error reading CD: 0,2,16
Error reading CD: 0,2,0"

I dont know what to do... Has anybody ever had this problem?
If so did you fix it? and if you did please tell me how. Thanks.

Hmm.. it doesn't sound like a problem with ePSXe, but a problem with your Windows...

Mr. Killjoy · January 11th, 2003

Yes, that's what I think too, try to do Scanreg, or reinstall Windows

Sounds like you have a background task which is interfering with the running of ePSXe. Ctrl-Alt-Del and stop the program Conagent.exe, then run ePSXe and see what you can do. If you know what Conagent.exe is a part of, then uninstall that.

try making the game into a ISO

Jsweet2k2 · January 11th, 2003

FF7 is too big to bother making it into an ISO, yeloazndevil.

Phoenix Flame, I dont think so.... I think i just have the APPS.INF File missing from windows 98.

Killjoy, I aint re installing windows 98 again lol, i have too much good stuff, and i just re formated last month...

TalkingANUS, probably... I think im missing that file.

I have the back-up windows 98 disks, But i dont know how to just get certain files from it, I dont wanna reinstall the whole Win98. Does anyone know how to do it?

>FF7 is too big to bother making it into an ISO, yeloazndevil.

You can make it a CD at a time when nesecary.

>Phoenix Flame, I dont think so.... I think i just have the APPS.INF File missing from windows 98.

Copy it back from the CD then.

>Killjoy, I aint re installing windows 98 again lol, i have too much good stuff, and i just re formated last month...

Doesn't take that much to get 98 reinstalled.

>I have the back-up windows 98 disks, But i dont know how to just get certain files from it, I dont wanna reinstall the whole Win98. Does anyone know how to do it?

Using the exctract command.

Jsweet2k2 · January 12th, 2003

Where is the " exctract command " ?

**Kane** · January 12th, 2003

Extract.
So I spelt it wrong, so sue me.
Open up a command window, go to where your 98 install files are stored, and type 'Extract /?'

Jsweet2k2 · January 12th, 2003

I didnt notice you spelled it wrong.

Anyway, I fixed that problem using "System File Checker" . So i now have the APPS.INF File. I dont get that error message anymore, Although i still have a problem, Im still getting..

"Error reading CD: 0,2,16
Error reading CD: 0,2,0"

In the ePSXe log box thing. Does anyone have any ideas what could be cuasing this? ...Kane?

Maybe i need to update my CD-ROM Driver...

**Kane** · January 12th, 2003

Well try an ISO to begin with.

Most likely your cd is scratched up.. Try making an iso like Kane suggested or repair the disk..

Jsweet2k2 · January 12th, 2003

It works now, I had to configure the CD-Rom thing. lol sorry about that. Well my ePSXe is now Fully working. Thanks to all that gave me some ideas.

But, I need some suggestions on how to get Full Screen, with good resolution for Final Fantasy 7 ? I dont need SUPER sweet graphics that go beyond normal PSX (Although i would love that), i just dont want it to be blurry, Speed may be a factor too, so i'd need a fast working plugin, Can any of you give me some Video Plugins to try?

My graphics card is a "Intel(r) 82810E Graphics Controller 5.1"

63.MB RAM on this computer.

well u could go to Kane's website for that
try Pete's DX6 plug-in 1.68 and Peops soft GPU plug-in 1.12

Jsweet2k2 · January 12th, 2003

I did yeloazndevil, I went to his site and did exactly as it said for that plugin with FF7, It gave me awesome high resolution (Just what i wanted) Except.. It wasn't very stable, and it was either too fast, or too slow, i couldnt get the speed just right.

So, Thanks to kane for the resolution, and thanks to yeloazndevil for telling me to go there =)

**Kane** · January 12th, 2003

>It wasn't very stable, and it was either too fast, or too slow, i couldnt get the speed just right.

Fer fecks sake. This is quoted from my site:

Quote:

Use FPS limit: Limits the frame-rate based on the Auto detect FPS/Frame skipping limit, FPS limit (10-200) toggle. Recommended: On

Auto-detect FPS/ Frame Skipping limit & FPS Limit: If you set the toggle to the top one, the game will limit the frame rate based on the game's region (~60FPS for NTSC, ~50FPS for PAL), in conjunction with Use FPS limit. FPS Limit allows you to manually set the max speed of the game. Recommended: Auto

That should solve our 'stability' problems.

>>i have too much good stuff, and i just re formated last month...
there is a software called PartitionMagic which could make you get some time... by installing Windows on one partition (c:\)
and the others things in e:\

When you format, just make sure ou make a backup of some Registry keys

I formatted last weekend, and still have all my personnal files
