well, you can start by posting your video plugins spec. Head to lord kane's site and check the plugins configuration settings

system
cpu amd xp 1700
ddr 2100 512mb

if it works on adripsx with the same setting, why wouldn't it work on epsxe? oh and what's the difference between scph7502.bin and scph1001.bin bios? i know scph1001.bin is the bio for us psx, so is scph7502.bin the new bio for us psx one? i was just curious.
thanks...

Good, it is a good question, first it doesn't like the epsxe mdec timing, you can use -nomdectiming, but even so, it will stop with random crashes. And it is because it doesn't like the epsxe way of handle the irqs, and there isn't option to remove it (at least yet). Anyway you can use some different psx emulator in order to get this game working.

Regards,
Carlos.

mikoyh, the 7502 bios is the European version of the PSX bios. The 1001 is, as you said, the US version. Both bioses are reccomended by the ePSXe authors, though the 7502 does seem to be a bit more compatible w/some games as opposed to the 1001.
