    Have you tried re-downloading or using a download manager program? A download manager will resume interrupted downloads so more likely to be the full file.

    It works for me on ePSXe 1.9.25 with .bin file size 427185KB:417MB

    If you need more help, please post what emulator and version you are having problems with, what plugins, etc.


    Be afraid. Be very afraid.

    Exclamation

    (i'm getting a 404 error return on the OP link. possibly due to my location/isp, or simply not present anymore? others, please confirm/deny. i'm in NW-england, ISP virgin media.)
    okay!
    you need to be more specific.
    you could try using imgburn, set disk write speeds to 8x (nominal speeds) and give it a go.
    make sure the media is good quality, and also ensure the disk writing program finalizes the disk write.
    NO open session writes, closed session only.
    ...
    are the disk images verified as retail/exact?
    look up 'redump.org' and compare the relevant items there.
    if they match up by hash 101%, review usage.
    if they don't...
    ...
    and is the mod on the playstation working right?
    is the laser on the drive assembly okay?
    does the console need a good interior service?
    ...

    good luck!

    right!
    what you have is an archived image, packed with ecm.
    look into 'pakkiso' and ecm/unecm.
    you should end up with the uncompressed bin image.
    when that's done, write clean image to disk.
    found this on the tube: Download Links:

    tried, but there's clearly a LACK of communication, all i can suggest is look for an alternative download of the game if you can't expand playstation ecm compressed files.
    ...
    there's little to work with here.
    there's another known public romsite with the FF games, but i won't mention it...reasons and rulzes.
    ...
    dunno what to say really.
    post back a directory list of the game in question please. (so at least there's a chance of resolving this?)
    otherwise, happy hunting.

    Here is Guardians Crusade Redump - http://www.epforums.org/showthread.p...50#post1856850

    FF9 Pal ain't happening by me as its inferior to the USA release, you can grab that in the masterlist.
    THE BEST METHOD to run PSX games (and everything else for that matter) is via Retroarch - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/
    If you have any questions on how to set it up on Windows please feel free to ask, its very easy.

    Try using this guide http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?57757 for those pesky ecm and ape files

    The guide does not use 'pakkiso' that fails for some users, instead it uses the original tools to handle ecm and ape files and is easy to use

    Francesco95 please create your own thread next time
