I'm looking for a way to turn the volume off, temporarily, for my Final Fantasy VIII game in ePSXe 1.7.0. While I'm incessantly playing the card game, I don't need the volume. So I'd like to be able to play music in Winamp in the background.

I've tried adding -nosound at the end of an ePSXe shortcut that I put on my desktop. Well it worked, sort of. The volume was off, but there were bugs. The game wouldn't load without me loading a save state. And when I tried to play the card game, it never loaded. I think I'm adding the -nosound right. I right-click the shortcut, go to Properties. Then in the Target field, AFTER the last quote mark, I add a space then type -nosound. Is that correct?

So does anyone know how to turn off the sound in ePSXe so I can listen to music in the background?
