You probably need a new video card. My old computer was a 900mhz Duron with 128mb RAM and a TNT2, for the most part ePSXe worked fine on it. Pick up an old GeForce4 card, use Pete's Direct3D Plugin and you should be golden.

Yeah, I got..version 1.0? or 1.1 I'm not sure.Originally Posted by Haldrie
But yeah, the second time I tried it it worked fine, except with I maximized the dinow, then it was slow and choppy.
Okay, and now I downloaded Final Fantasy VIII ( Yeah! I'm gonna get disk 1 of IX later this night when I go to bed)
And...it runs good...a little slow. But when I'm in battles, you know the command windows? Yeah, they ain't there. I mean. The names are..
Maybe a visual would be better?
Other than that, and the occasional FMV crap...it's wroking fine, but how come this works better than ePSXe?

You need the latest version, 1.11. That is the one that I just tested.
[EDIT]
The reason it works better on your systems then ePSXe is because everything is intergrated in the emulator and doesn't rely on third-party plugins to function. It also only emulates the original PSX functions which included the low-res video quality that PSX is known for. The only thing that pSX really requires is the latest version of DirectX 9c (which it seems you have it you are able to start the emulator) and the hardware to support it. ePSXe chews up processor power in order to enhance the low-res graphic on PSX games causing it to slow down on low-end systems and is what I assume is the cause of some major emulation bugs that you don't get with pSX. The only reason ePSXe is popular is because of it's graphical enhancements and online play capability (which the author of pSX has refused to add at the moment but might consider when the emulator is more compatible and if people would stop harassing him about it). Even without these enhancement pSX's compatibliitly list keep growing with each new version and it can already emulate some games that ePSXe can't and can emulate some games better then ePSXe (the Final Fantasy series for example, specifically VII and IX). ePSXe can still run some games that pSX can't due to curtain work-arounds that ePSXe uses but these two emulators are currently going head to head for the most compatible PSX emulator out there.
[EDIT]
Other then the usual differences I mentioned I should also point out the pSX is currently the only PSX emulator still in active development.

I haven't tried it again yet.
But I will, soon.
But, see. If you hadn't come along, I wouldn't of learned about pSX and I would abandon my PSXing emulation untill I got a new computer, and just stuck to N64..
Which, incidentally.
My old computer, which was a high end gaming computer couldn't run a single N64 game properly.
This one runs them perfectly.
Weird.

Most game with CDDA tracks don't seem to want to work from the disc. Try using an image and it should work.
