Unhappy epsxe just show me a black screen

I have just started using Epsxe but it won't load anything for me. I have checked lots of forums to try make it on my own but I just can't.
I have tried by using bios 'scph7502.bin' and 'Scph1001.bin' but none of them work... it just becomes black and stops to respond.. what can I do?

Re: epsxe just show me a black screen

OGL2 is an experimental plugin, it works well, but it's not very optimized yet... and it's for the next generation cards (nowadays ones run it from "not at all" to "fine", but most run it "slow")

Re: epsxe just show me a black screen

Turn on fps limitation and set it to 60 fps for NTSC games and 50 for PAL (or you can just hit the auto button). If your desktop is set to 16 bit color then set the plugin to 16 bit color and turn on dithering. If your processor is fast enough (1.5 ghz+) then set framebuffer access to 4. If you want to put teh framebuffer effects and stuff on the gfx card then set the framebuffer texture to 2 (or 3) and set framebuffer access to 3.

Re: epsxe just show me a black screen

Sorry, but what game are you trying to play?

1. If you are playing from an image file make sure the iso isn't damage or corrupted.

2. Try mounting the image on a virtual drive like daemon and use peops/sapu cdr plugin.

For the video try these settings...

Re: epsxe just show me a black screen

If you have a file FF9.img then it's an image of the ff9 cd, it's basicaly the same thing as ISO.

And if you have the pal FF9 version, then IIRC you need a patch to run it, try google to search it.

Re: epsxe just show me a black screen

Then you are fooked. Nero doesn't copy the copy protection which is what you need for the version you have.
