If you looked in the Help running game on PSX emu thread you will have seen a post by Kirby recomending petes sound plugin if thats any help

I know their is a point in the game were you will need a work around to get past a certain cutscene.. I dunno if that's what you're talking about but try Zorlon's suggestion.. And if it's a cutscene that it keeps freezing at their's a certain F key you have to hit.. Unless they fixed that in the latest version...

when it freezes try changing the frame skip so it goes REALLY fast, or as fast as possible, after about two minutes it should unfreeze... well it did for me...

One suggestion, you might want to try to run the game with ePSXe v1.5.2 cause I've read around and ppl say that there are some Squaresoft games freezes with ePSXe v1.6 example:

FF9: Disk 1, when Vivi, Dagger, Steiner, and you (main character) gets on the airship FMV...it'll freeze and won't move at all.

*Note: the top scenario happened to me and I switched over to ePSXe v1.5.2 and then I had no problem*

yeah,and upon starting a new game in chrono cross the game will go to a black screen and stay there in 1.6 but in 1.52 it works fine.Thats why i keep both versions on hand at all times!

[Krake]

None of those ideas did work. Any more ideas?

Krake wat's your computer spec? Can you run other games with ePSXe smoothly? And what video + sound drivers are u using?

Try running Xenogears with CVGS..I use CVGS and Xeno runs way better with no slow downs or messed up screens..

There. I know this maybe will sound stupid, but I have a hunch that you, Makenshi, will help me.

Get the emu at http://www.megagames.com/psx/psx_utils_emu.shtml
you may also want to get the games.txt file from http://www.aldostools.com to improve the compatability of CVGS

Great! CVGS worked just great with Xenogears! Now I can go on and play the game!
