So which version of the game is this, mtatomic64 - game ID is the best identification. But most Playstation games have different versions and they often work differently, so fixes for them vary. What version of the emulator are you using and what BIOS? What format are you playing the game in, the original CDs or images and, if images, what format and how did you rip them?
Whichever OS you're using, first make a copy of the shortcut or launcher you've probably made to start the emulator. Right click the copy and select Properties. If you're using Windows, (AIR) there should be a panel called Target: with the path to the emulator in inverted commas (""); if you're using Linux, you'll see a panel called Command: Put your cursor in whichever one and press the End key on your keyboard; that'll move the cursor to the end of the line - if you're using Windows, make sure it winds up after the final inverted commas. Type a space then -r. Click OK (for Windows) or Close for Linux. The launcher or shortcut will now start pSX with Event Rescheduling enabled; this does help freezing problems in many games - you might want to rename your launcher or shortcut to reflect that.
BTW I've just checked all the threads you've posted in, and I've never told you to try the -r switch or fast forwarding.

well if you think about the version... do you mean PAL or NTSC??? my cd can run them both.... I've been using 1.13 and i'm using SCPH1001... well i don't have the original disks so i burned them... i've tried every image but it won't work... i tried to rip them with alcohol 120% and clonecd... I'll try to do what u said now... i hope it works..
about the -r switch (sorry 'bout the thread mixed u up)i looked something about it but it's 2 complicated for me... fast forwarding will not help

If you don't have the original CDs then you don't legally own the game, mtatomic64 - you've been warned about this before, but you don't learn, do you?
Far and away the most likely reason your images won't work is that they're bad rips. There's nothing you can do about that except buy the game and a) try playing directly from the CDs - this may not work with a PAL version because the game is copy protected and, if you don't have a drive that can read subcode and a driver that supports this (Windows IOControl doesn't support subcode reading), you won't be able to play this game from PAL CDs. It's not certain whether NTSC versions are protected.
Or b) you can rip the game yourself, taking care and using a specialist ripper like CloneCD or Alcohol to rip to a format that includes subcode: i.e. CloneCD's .ccd/.img/.sub or Alcohol's .mdf/.mds formats.
Just to give you a chance to think about things and hopefully learn something, you can have a 1 week ban.
