I'm new to emulating, and am trying to start FF8 using ePSXe. I have both 1.5.2 an 1.7. On 1.7, when I hit "new game" it gives me some dumb error and closes, so I downloaded 1.5.2 to see how it worked on there. On 1.5.2, when I hit "new game" it does'nt give me an error, but the screen goes black and stays that way.
Using Pete's Open GL2 and whatever the most recent sound one is that Pete released, and scph1001 for bios.
I have no idea what the specs of this computer are, nor does it matter as I won't be using it again as of tomorrow. The system I will start using tomorrow is alright for other games (WoW, other big names) and can generally handle them with slightly less than average settings.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: Downloaded 1.6 and the same thing happened as with 1.7.
