    Default The X-Files won't work right

    I am having some problems with The X-Files...it will come on just fine but when I start a new game it doesn't something weird. the start menu is still behind it when the actually game starts...if that that makes any sense..like I said its weird and hard to describe....is there a certain setting I have to use to play this game or what. like change to openGL or whatever. please help me someone!

    The X-Files works fine the last time I tested it on ePSXe, the only possible issue in opengl2 is when you have to save that you have to press f7 to eneble the software mode.
    You can check the configuration in the PSX Datacenter:

    its ok now I give up...the configuration on the page gladiator did help me and the game played nicely but sadly it won't help with the bigger issue. X-files is a 4 disc game...1.70 won't change discs. I tried this same configuration using the 1.60 but when I click on save or load...it freezes up or something. I could always technically play it using save states but...its just no fun if the whole thing doesn't work...unless 1.80 has solved the disc changing problems...im just going to give up. when I try mounting something...it doesn't matter if I have the right plugin or not when I click to run the CDROM the emulator just closes out...and I know I have the right plugin and when I tried to configure it always freezes up and says its stopped working....

    thank you guys so much gladiator and zorlon..but I need to just go ahead and give up...before I get to frustrated and decide to put my fist through the wall...again

    That's why I put in ePSXe v170 as the cdrom plugin P.E.Op.S. CDR Driver 1.4.

    Try in ePSXe v180 and ePSXe v190 since those versions already fixed the changing disc issue. But I didn't test the game in those versions.
