.mdf file types

Is there a way to get .mdf file types to work on ePSXe? Whenever I try, it just stops at the black screen.

Daemon tools is your friend... probably your best friend... get them and no more troubles.. except with NRG files

Or if you have alcohol 120% or less you can use those to run those types of files. Dameon works very well though and it's free. also some files like the .cdi for dreamcast games require dameon tools 3.29 so if you wana run more than one emulator i suggest getting 3.29 instead of the newest ones. That way you can play psx playstation and anything else your heart desires without a cd-rom!... like on my laptop!

If I got Daemons tools, what exactly do they do?

Daemon Tools creates a virtual DVD-ROM drive on your computer. MDF/MDS files are CD images created with Alcohol 120%. You can use Daemon Tools to "mount" the disc image into the virtual drive, then configure ePSXe to run games off that virtual drive as if it were a CD-ROM.

eh, just go back and remake the ISO. set it to CloneCD format, and then you can go to Run ISO in ePSXe. much easier.
