Are your drivers up to date ?

Did you defined manually your GFX Ram size ?

Also with that card your better of using Pete's Opengl 2 plugin.

Usually when you driver stops responding it means your gfx card isn't getting enough power.

So for some reason I am having a hard time finding a solution even though this seems as if this would be a common problem. Also can't start a new thread so I am posting on here.

Well I am trying to play Lunar Silver Star Story Complete. I have tried using ePSXe 1.7 and 1.6 and both seem to have problems

I know I have found a fix for this but now I can't seem to find anything helpful (on here or other forums) and can't remember how I had fixed it before.

I have tried switching to the 'nice' setting using Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.9 and changing around the fps, resolution, and textures in different combinations and nothing seems to work.

I read on one of the other threads that the emulator may have trouble when using an ATI card (which I am: ATI Radeon HD 4600).
Also here are my other specs if it helps:

Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) II X2 550 Processor (2 CPUs), ~3.1GHz
Ram: 4.00 gb
OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Was wondering if anyone had any solutions for it to work without lag?
