    No, that's not right... Hm... Strange, it works fine for me.
    Where did you download PCSX2?

    1. Run the PCSX2 installer. (Just don't change the default settings.)
    2. Put the BIOS file in C:\Users\USER\Documents\PCSX2\bios
    3. Run the PCSX2 .exe.
    4. Chose the following plugins: http://image-upload.de/image/9xrmkN/a6211879a9.jpg and click 'Apply'.
    5. Click on 'Configure' next to the GS plugins and apply the following configs: http://image-upload.de/image/JDulHL/99b25978bb.jpg. Of course you can chose a different resolution.
    6. Click next and chose the USA BIOS (maybe you have to click on 'Refresh list first').
    7. After applying those configs click on Config->Emulation Settings and apply those configs:
    7.1 http://image-upload.de/image/Qg4RS8/1f81483427.jpg
    7.2 http://image-upload.de/image/ISehVR/97a8f0d63e.jpg
    7.3 http://image-upload.de/image/sn5srq/ece072bd57.jpg
    7.4 http://image-upload.de/image/XtP5hB/665751cac5.jpg (Again you can chose a different resolution.)
    7.5 http://image-upload.de/image/eGAHFD/1ba32e0b0d.jpg

    That should work. I hope I didn't forget anything. ^^

    EDIT: Maybe you have to chose a different GS plugin if your CPU doesn't support those funtions but give it a try first.
    EDIT 2: Maybe you have to change to DirectX 9 Mode if your GPU doesn't support DX10. If you don't know try DX10 first.

    I'm up to step 5 and I don't have Direct3D 10 like you do... Here is a screenshot of my options:

    I think you can chose Direct3D11 (Hardware) then.

    Ok I just configured everything setting according to your screenshots. I'll try to download an iso rom now and test it on this pscx2 emulator.

    Okay, please let me know if it works. By the way, Final Fantasy X is pretty much the best working game on the PCSX2, so maybe you should try it to see if everything works. Because some games just don't run smooth.

    I have the actual FFX game for PS2, can I somehow run it through the PSCX2 emulator by inserting the dvd into my cd/dvd drive?

    Yes you can. But you have to load it with the CDVD-Plugin instead of the ISO launcher. Configure it so it points to your CD/DVD-Drive.

    Yes you can do it - if you have the NTSC version of the game. And maybe you have to configurate the CDVD plugin but I don't think so. I'm not sure but I think you have to click CDVD and chose 'Plugin'. Then click System->Boot CDVD (full or fast).

    Yea it's NTSC U/C?

    Do I go to CDVD -> Plugin?

    Then Plugin Menu -> Plugin Settings -> Source Drive: my dvd drive?

    I got the game to load! But now I need to find out how to configure the settings for my ps2 controller...any help?
