Video drivers?

Shrike_Priest · August 5th, 2002

I was looking at the requirements for ePSXe, and saw that you needed to download video drivers for it. unfortunately, I'm using a budget laptop with a fairly obscure GFX chip, so I was wondering which video plugin I should download.

Here's some info on my card, since I really don't know what you would need to help me, I'll list some random facts (since my OS is in Swedish the translation might be a bit weird):

circuit type: S3 Graphics Twister K
DAC type: S3 SDAC
Card string: S3 compatible display adapter

forgive my ignorance, but do the drivers come with the ePSXe bundles?

OmniDistortion · August 5th, 2002

what drivers/bundles?
steps:
download epsxe
download plugins
put plugin where is is needed (use the text files that come with the plugin for help)

I just didn't see the plugins download, and I figured that perhaps some drivers were included in the ePSXe download. But I found the plugin download.

Thanks anyway.

Sorry to bother you.

No bother, I am glad I could help someone in search of answers! Please come back if you need any more assistance. I would be glad to help someone like you.

Someone like me, eh?

Anyways, I've got a problem:
Whenever I try to configure/choose the video drivers, I get an errror message saying that "this program could not be started since WNASPI32.dll could not be found", and ePSXe freezes, but after a while, I get th config menu up, and can do what I like.

did I miss a download, or is this just a bug in ePSXe?

Edit: I just tried to run a CD, and it said "error loading WNASPI32.dll" and then stopped loading the CD.

I only downloaded ePSXe 1.5.2 and a plugin bundle from some other site.
