    Angry I can't run Syphon Filter 2 & 3, please help!!!

    Hi guys I just download Syphon Filter 2 & 3 but they don't want to run!!! its driving me crazy!. They came in .mds .mdf files, so first I tried to convert them to .bin .cue with UltraIso, like i did with my other games, and no luck!!!, then I tried using Daemon tools, loading the .mds file and no luck either!!!
    Here my pc specs:
    AMD Athlon 3200
    512 RAM
    ATI 9600
    80 gb hard drive (38 gb free)

    Epsxe:

    Petes Open GL 1.76
    Eternal SPU 1.41
    Internal EPSXE Iso Image 1.5.2
    Bios 1001
    Epsxe internal pad

    I have already running GT2, Tekken 3, Spyro, Metal Gear Solid and Tony Hawk 3, and I really dont understand why this game don't want to run. Please please help me!

    If I remember right, it's not a very good to covert PSX games. I believe one of the reasons is that it can cause you to have problems in the game. Like videos in the game not working and other things.

    UltraISO does ideed kill off STR and XA files so they are not readable by a PSX

    Also note that alot of games will just freeze for that reason

    Converting with ISObuster will work fine though

    Saying that the CD Image sounds corrupt to start with as Daemon tools should of let ePSXe read it through the Daemon drive, unless ePSXe was not looking for the correct drive, so make sure you have configured the CD plugin to read the drive Daemon tools uses

    These games work fine on my chipped PSone so it's probably either a rip problem or a compatability issue with ePSXe. Try scanning with CDmage.

    Post your settings maybe someone can help you out .
