use daemon tools and mount the files, and try with the epsxe 1.6.0 version.

I gave Tomb Raider 1 a spin, and I'm getting the same results using both an ISO file and the original CD. I'm using 1.6.0 and nothing pops up on the console after the "SPU Open" message. I'll try and find a way around it.

I've got mine fully functional but the music is really chopy for some reason. I think it has to do with either to high of an FPS limit or the XA sound used in the game. Anyway here are my settings.

Video: P.E.Op.S. SoftX Driver 1.17
Configuration:
RESOLUTION:
Fullscreen mode is checked
Windowed mode is unchecked
Both fullscreen and window mode are set at 640x480
Stretching mode = 0: Full size stretch
Dithering = 1: Game dependend
FRAMERATE:
All except "Use FPS limit" are unchecked and Framrate FPS is set to 200
OPTIONS:
everything is Disabled.

Sound: P.E.Op. OSS Audio Driver 1.8
Everything is checked in the main menu.
Configuration:
GENERAL SETTINGS:
Volume = 2: Loud
Reverb = 2: PSX reverb (best quality)
Interpolation = 2: gaussian interpolation (good quality)
XA MUSIC:
Enable XA playing is checked
Change XA speed, if it is played too fast is unchecked
MISC:
High compatibility mode = unchecked
SPU IRQ - wait for cpu action (enable it for a few games) = checked
Mono sound is unchecked

NOTE: Sound is very choppy with these settings and I have tried everything I can to try and fix them. Also note that I am running Linux but the configuration should be the same. Also I am using cdrmooby to handle my cdroms. Although the latest version seems to have bugs in so I would recomend downloading 2.7.

No settings are required.
Ensure that CDDA Volume is checked and set to MAX.
