'Read without driver' error in PSX

[mchammer75040]

Alright so upon logging an hour or so into FFVII I have a error pop up in the command box saying 'read without driver'. Once this pops up the game freezes. I thought it might be that my computer sucks, but I can run games like half life 2 episode 2 without a problem, so I dont understand what is wrong. I re downloaded the rom from a different source and this still happens. If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.

mchammer75040, it's usual to read forum rules and advice before posting for the first time; in particular, it's not very clever to ignore the

prominently posted at the top of every page in the forum.

Downloading games is illegal and downloaded games will not receive support in this forum. Even if they weren't illegal, it's still unlikely we would support them, for one other simple reason: downloaded games are frequently badly ripped: the people posting them don't care. So any problems someone has with a downloaded game is likely to be due to a bad rip rather than any emulator problem. Final Fantasy VII normally plays fine, apart from a few known bugs that can be worked around - this isn't one of them.

Downloading games is particularly stupid since you can buy most Playstation games cheaply and easily: if you don't have any local shops selling them, try ebay or Amazon.

Please read the forum rules before posting again. I don't want to see dumb posts like this again from you.
