ShadowLady accidentally linked you to an older DX redistributable. This is the one you need:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/detai...2D8712D553&displaylang=en
If this still doesn't work, use this: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/detai...6652CD92A3&displaylang=en and select all optional updates.

Which are the DLLs reported missing?

[EarthwormJim]

im using DX 10 by the way.

um..
gsdx-sse2-r1873.dll gsdx-sse4-r1873.dll gsdx-ssse3-r1873.dll

its not reporting them as missing now that i installed the august 2009 thingie. but it still says error opening cd dvd plugin every time i try to run the iso

[Bositman]

You should use gsdx-ssse3-r1873. Have you configured your CDVD plugin properly according to what the guide says?

[EarthwormJim]

it only has EFP Iso CDVD v0.6.0 and null. iv selected it and the emulator said its working. what other cd plugins work with the beta?

it says theres an error reading the iso and an error opening the cdvd plugin

[Koji]

Install the beta again, somehow you didn't end up with any of the beta CDVD plugins. EFP iso plugin isn't even distributed with pcsx2 anymore (the author has stopped working on it till he can afford a computer upgrade)

[Bositman]

That's not possible. Our 0.9.6 release includes about 4 cdvd plugins and our beta 1888 release includes Linuz ISO and CDVDnull. You can always copy over the cdvd plugin dll files from the 0.9.6 release to the beta. So you probably didn't get them from our site and we don't give support for that.

[EarthwormJim]

sorry, there are two plugins in the beta, the cdvd null one and Linuz 0.9.0
my bad

i just tried gigaherz, it does the same thing as it does with 0.9.6 the game window pops up as normal but remains black, no sound or anything. peops gets an error opening cdvd plugin message

what else can i do? this is breaking my balls

[Bositman]

...look. You are either using an actual dvd disc or an ISO image of that. Depending which, you have to use either Peops CDVD/Gigaherz CDVD for the actual disc or the Linuz ISO plugin for an ISO image.
Obviously you have to also configure the plugin properly after you select the right one, all of which are covered in the guide.

[EarthwormJim]

i know. im using an iso image, i have tried all of the cdvd plugins that come with both versions of the emulator i am using, iv used each plugin configured to the configuration guide and nothing is making a difference.

could it be somthing else? it DID work once in 0.9.6 with default configuration (except from changing the gfx plugin from dx9 hardware to dx10) iv set it back to that since, also tried redownloading and reinstalling, i even tried making a new iso. every time it starts normally, no errors (since installing the new runtime components, and the cdvd plugin errors in the beta) and when the game window opens its completely black and stays that way, no sound or anything.

when i use Linuz iso plugin it always reports an error opening iso and error opening cdvd plugin, the black game window without sound happens when i try to run the iso like a disk using a virtual drive.

is there anything else i can try or should i just give up?
