I'm no tech expert and I just learned how to use EPSXE about a few years back, self-teaching and yeah. Anyway, I guess that was like 2011 when I had this laptop, well, it wasn't one of the famous brands out there but I was able to play almost any game on EPSXE worked well and yeah. I didn't have any IT background so I watched youtube videos and got the emulator going smoothly. Then about 2 years ago I got this Acer V11 Touch Laptop. Still things were going smoothly. Later the same year we got this new computer Acer Aspire ZC-610 and here are the specs or hardware installed (sorry for the wrong terminologies im using, if ever, like i said im no tech expert):

So there. Using 1.7.0 i was able to play Legend of Legaia (my absolute favorite) usingete's OpenGL Driver, using the NICE settings then, epsxe sound core 1.7.0, epsxe cdr wnt/w2k core 1.7.0 for the cdrom, scph1001.bin for the bios. Everything was good even using PEC. I've been playing Legend of Legaia until recently my saves got erased but that's not the issue. I tried to play CTR as well as PACMAN 20th anniversary but both were not playing. Both have black screens and never load as they should. The pacman game loads the NAMCO screen then goes to black screen afterwards. Recently I also tried Crash Bandicoot Warped and Cortex games but to no avail. I watched a ton of youtube videos as well as read forums from different websites. Some were happy the black screen isue was resolved but I cant figure out the tips werent working for me. Im guessing its because of the Graphic card. Ive tried the regedit.exe tip but still not working. I also tried working with different video plugins but still not working. So far only the legend of legaia game is working. I dont know what to do. I want to know if thres a way to make things work wihtout having to replace my video card or i dont know. Im on my wits end...HELP T.T
