I'm new here and could need an advice i have vista 32 bit and nice pc stats, but still some problems with the emu: everytime i play somethin' the screen goes black after some minuts and windows give me the message "the r3000 driver was sucessfull revived" and then i can play again. The problem is that it gets on my nervs after the second time and im passionately playing Bloody Roar 2 at the moment XD would be nice if some1 can help me

Bit difficult to say, jangofat - you don't give us much to go on. Which version of the game is it - what's the game ID? What sort of system are you running on? How are you trying to play the game - are you running from your original CD or an image and, if an image, what format? What BIOS are you using? Have you made any changes to pSX' configuration on the graphics or sound tabs? Which version of the emulator are you using?

This game (the NTSC version, anyway - I don't know which version you're using) is in the Compatibility Lists as working. My guess, and it's purely a guess, is that you're using a dodgy image - how did you rip it?

hi patrickp ;D the problem isn't just bloody roar, every game i play have this problem. I play images, and all of them were downloaded so i guess they aren't the prob. I use the pal bios ( I'm a German) and i use the latest version (v 1.13). My system is so:
Intel Celeron 1,6 GHZ (will change in few days XD)
Radeon 9500 Pro (that will change too XD)
1 Gigabyte ram (maybe ill have some money left to change this too XD).
I didnt made any changes in the configurations, but i just saw that the black window which opens with psx and show you the aktuell infos give me some infos: It says
"Illegal link address 007fff68 <during ot breadcrumb cleanup>
Illegal link address 007fff80 <during ot breadcrumb cleanup>"
this message comes every time when the screen turns black and the r3000 message comes. I hope this can help you to help me XD

[sigh]Why are we getting so many idiots ATM? Read the

prominently displayed at the top of every page in the forum, jangofat.

We don't support downloaded games because they're illegal but, even if they were somehow legal, we probably still wouldn't support them because so many downloaded games are bad rips - it takes care to rip a Playstation game properly, and why should some bozo posting illegal games care? Why would you say

I play images, and all of them were downloaded so i guess they aren't the prob?

The exact opposite is true: the messages you're getting suggest bad rips.

And what makes it really dumb is that so many Playstation games are available cheaply and easily; if you don't have a local dealer that sells them, try ebay or Amazon. If you want to play from images, rip them yourself: it's the only way to be reasonably sure you're getting a good image.

Read the forum rules before posting again, and don't repeat dumb posts like this, or you'll be looking at a ban.[/sigh]
