ok, so i was playing the first dot hack game (volume 1) last night and everything was fine but i just tried to start it up again to continue playing and now its spitting out this list of errors which i think are plugin related. i haven't changed a thing since i played last night, not a single thing anywhere.

all the mentioned files are there and i never mess with them so i dunno whats wrong. i guess i could go and redownload (or update since i always download from that automated pcsx2 builds page to get the latest version and boy do they update this emulator frequently) it and see if that helps. seems weird that it would just spontaneously start giving errors like that though. i do use codebreaker codes with the game but i doubt that would have any effect on the plugins (don't see how it could).
:/ i guess, i'll just leave this here in case anyone else has had such weird issues and grab the latest version for now.
edit: that puts me at...
current version: pcsx2-v1.2.1-670-g84f8447-windows-x86
and the newest is: v1.2.1-775-gff24a5f
one month and its gone from 1.2.1-670 up to 1.2.1-775. yay for frequent updates.
edit 2: what the? its still giving the same errors on that log window and the files mentioned ARE in the plugins folder, i can see them all plain as day. i'd go and ask on the pcsx2 forums for help but i don't want to risk slipping up and mentioning the word iso or rom somewhere and get pissed off because they would instantly deny all tech support PERIOD. i'm well aware of that places zero tolerance policy regarding the very mention of such words.
edit3: well, guess i'm not playing ps2 games on my laptop anymore. well, not with any audio that is. :/
edit4: solved! (and without slipping up and mentioning so much as a single word related to piracy. *phew*) went and asked on the pcsx2 forums and while i still don't know what caused the errors (yeah, my laptop doesn't supper that AVX stuff which had been working fine for months so far without any problems. pfft whatever), i did get a solution to the audio.
if anyone else has issues like this with there suddenly being no audio and you use the SPU2-X plugin, if the audio module is set to 4 (default i think) change it to 1 and if its set to 1 change it to 4 and see if that works.
