hello guys im new to this site but had been playing with emulators for a while
i recently bought an old windows 7 computer and i cant run any emulators. Also every time i download an iso file it will always show as ziped
my comp sepcs are
windows 7 home premium
model p2-1113w
processor ADM E-300 APU
Graphics 1.30 GHZ
RAM 4.0
64 bit
ps. all i want to do is play YUGIOH FM modded
If the file is compressed, use a program like 7zip or Winrar to extract the image file.
i have winrar and yes they're always compressed. it will open everything else but the iso file. it will always say that its corrupted. aside from that i can never get the emulator to work, i dont know if its because of windows 7 64bit or something like that because i never had that problem with my windows vista
If the file is corrupt, redownload it. No other way to fix it.
And we don't know what emulator are you running, so read this and post again if the game still does not work after sucesfully extracing it.

alrigh Ill read it but ive downloaded the same iso file multiple times and it wont work despite the fact that i also tried different sources this is a picture of the iso file already "extracted". Attachment 51250
keep the folder open as shown in your screen grab
Press F10 to show the Folder menu at the top
Click on Tools then Folder Options (it will open a new window)
Click on the View tab and look for Hide extensions of known file types
Remove the check from that option
Click Apply then OK
If you want to change the icon from WinRar either do that in WinRAR itself or make it open with CD/DVD software by default instead (you just right click the iso file and hit open with... the next window that opens gives you several options to open it with another prog asides from winRAR as well as a always open with option that should be enabled to make the change) or just don't care and use the above as a way to identify your file
File association does not effect anything else from read the file, so even though you have it associated with WinRAR Pcsx2 or any DVD burning software or any other software that reads *.iso files will stiill be able to fully read the file just fine
P.S. file size is kinda small for an ISO, it does look like it may well be corrupt and has not fully extracted
If you have download issues then use a download manager to download with to ensure the download gets done without issue
alright i downloaded it again and it came out as a bin file. i tried running it but my screen went black and when i pressed 'esc' the screen was zoomed in
ps. thanks for all the help and sorry im fairly new to computers
Ah ok it's a PSX game, rather than PS2 that I thought, then again there was no mention of the system it was for or the emulator used
I'm going to guess you are using ePSXe
You can find setting at http://psxdatacenter.com/games/U/Y/SLUS-01411.html
http://psxdatacenter.com is worth bookmarking if you want to use ePSXe
Thank you so much. You're awesome bro I've never been help so much on a board lol
I'll try tomorrow and update my status
alright i tried everything it said in the web page you recommended for epsxe 1.7.0 to the letter and got the same error (picture related) and yes sorry i didnt specify what i was running or my specs. here they are and if its going to be a pain in the ass to set it up ill just give up lol i cant spend so much time in this trying to figure it out. let me know your opinion if this is going to be a lengthy process or not
