ffVII wont run *begs for help*

[unregistered]

hey there,

Aside from being new at these forums, im also new into emulation as well.

Ive got pSX v.1.13 and the scph1001 bios (the purple/violet one with bubbles and stuff ) and i have one major issue: it wont run

Ive checked the compatibility list and it said there would be only some sound problems, if at all. But if I want to insert the image of FFVII, i hear just some sounds and then nothing. I still have the bios in front of me.
I cant say which NTSC or PAL version it is, only that I got it from Illegal link deleted - patrickp
Any ideas?

Also ive a more generell question:
How do I change CDs during the game ( like in most rpgs )?
I know it sounds nooby, but im playing Chrono Cross at the moment - which runs perfectly fine, but i got it from Illegal site names deleted - patrickp - and i dont want to make any mistakes ruining it.

I would be really gratefull of your support

bye

You should have read the

Global Announcement
The illegal sharing of copyright material will not be tolerated. This includes, but is not limited to, the sharing of disc images, ROMs, and BIOS images. We do not provide support for people who have obtained their games or BIOS images by illegal means.

clearly displayed at the top of every page in the forum before posting, unregistered. Even if your report had been legitimate, you should also have read Things to Remember when Posting Reports, prominently linked at the top of every page in the forum to find out at least the basic information you should have supplied.

Downloading illegal games is not tolerated in this forum and posting links to illegal sites that offer illegal games is worse - these things could bring the forum into disrepute if this were not policed.

Additionally, you've found out another reason why downloading illegal games is dumb: they're usually badly ripped and either won't run at all or will give you problems if they do. You have to be careful about ripping games because Playstation CDs are not in a standard format - you really think some bozo posting illegal games is going to bother? Even if they were somehow legal, we probably still wouldn't support them because their problems are usually due to their being bad rips.

Most Playstation games, as well, can still be bought cheaply and easily - if you don't have a local dealer, look on ebay or Amazon. New sealed copies of Final Fantasy VII can't be bought cheaply and easily any more, but good condition used ones are still easy to come by. What's the point of downloading illegal games when it's so easy to to get them legally? In addition, ripping games yourself is the only way to make sure you get a good rip.

Read the forum documentation before before posting again - you should have plenty of time, as you've been banned for a week.
