ePSXe annoyance

That's an integrated graphics chipset, meaning you don't have a graphics card, but a graphics chip on your motherboard.
It also probably means that the VRAM is shared with your PC's RAM, and probably doesn't go higher than 64MB.

So that basically means, while you should be able to emulate PSX at full speed, you likely won't be able to attain a decent framerate with all the bells an whistles of the GPU plugin turned on.
You'll want to bear that in mind, as it it often the cause of low framerates etc.

What version of DirectX are you using? You can find it on the start screen of dxdiag. Note this is only relevant if you're now using a DirectX plugin.

Actually, I have been able to get it to run at normal speed, but it eventually just starts screwing up.

As for what version of DirectX... uhm...

You're using DirectX 9.0c; using Pete's Direct3D plugin should work fine. Have you tried it yet?

[Roto13]

Just now. It didn't work as well as E}|{'s Soft Driver K6/P1MMX 0.98. It was all choppy and weird-looking. I've learned that the one I'm using now is ok for some games (I'm trying a few) but it still doesn't work with the 2-D fighting games I've tried. I'm wondering if it's going to mess up half way through Final Fantasy VIII.

I believe FFVIII needs to be patched in order to run on an emulator.

Next thing for you to try is updating the drivers for your video chip.

Sorry for the late reply.

I don't know about any patch, but FF VIII seems to be working ok for me so far. I think I'll wait until I have trouble with it before I try anything else. It's kind of... irritating.

I have a feeling only the PAL release of FFVIII needs to be patched.
FFIX is a different story though.

Oh well, good luck with FFVIII.
