Have you downloaded any video plugins?
Get them from the EpsxE section of this site, Petes OGL/D3D is a good one to start with if your new to EpsxE.

put the dll's in the "whatever_drive:\and_whatever_dir_you_have_espxe_i n\plugins" dir, then you should be able to pick one of them, and configure it. Head to Kane-Sama's page for a guide on plugin configuration.

well then why the hell can't I talk about illegal downloads if this whole forum is about god damn emulators, which is pirating software,

and don't gimme any of that "well if you own the game its ok" crap, cause I know about half these people here don't own the game they download

Emus are not illegal.
They are in a grey area, but not illegal. There are perfectly legal ways to use them:
Dump the BIOS yourself
Use legit games.

Misinformed rubbish. Please do not confuse your petty motivations with that of others. Emus are not about pirating games, they are about providing a system where games from yesteryear (read obsolete discontinued systems) are preserved for future generations.

Consider this a formal warning. A record of this warning has been placed on your user account.

so then if epsxe is legal then why the hell does it run on a "illegal system" aka a bio?

this whole thing just seems stupid!!! :cuss2:

The BIOS istself is not illegal, as I explained. You can rip it from your own PSX legally. Downloading it however is illegal.

well how I get it from my psx?

There's a bunch of tutorials on how to do that on the net, just google a bit and you'll find how. However, be warned that you'll need a Game Shark and the comms link cable (sold separately). From the psxemu faq:

Q4: How do I dump a PlayStation Bios?
A4: To dump a PlayStation Bios, you need a GameShark or Action replay and a PC comms link. To start, you need either a real Caetla module or go to AltaVista and search for "Caetla" (it's a BIOS replacement for your module, so read the included documentation properly before installing it !!). Now upload "Caetla", and use use the caetla commands for downloading a binary memory image from the region 0x0bfc00000 - 0x0bfc7ffff ! Now save the image as SCPHxxxx.bin, where xxxx is your PSX's model number, and emulators will recognize it and use it from now on.
