Hello All, I just wanted to start by saying this is a great forum that I have been lurking on for some time and I now hope that you can help me with my issue. First off, I will start off with my system specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1
AMD FX-6100 Zambezi 3.3GHz Six-Core CPU
Patriot 4GB DDR3 1333 RAM
PNY GeForce GTX 460 1GB video card
My issues:
1. In Gran Turismo 3 and 4, Tekken Tag Tournament and GTA San Andreas, I get frame rates around 28FPS.
2. Also the screen shakes up and down in some of these games and I have vertical black lines on the game output screen.
2. After I exit the game and I want to try different GS settings. I end up getting the "GS plugin failed to open!(thread:MTGS)(SaveSinglePlugin)" error. The dialog box that pops up says that it may be due to insufficient system resources.
I my research on this issue, there have been a lot of update your DirectX suggestions or your CPU/graphics cards are not powerful enough. I am pretty sure that I have a decent enough rig to run this emulator with at least 40-50FPS in these games. I believe, but I will let you all determine this for me. According to other sites on the internet, Microsoft doesn't update DirectX unless it puts out a new service pack or operating system. At least this is what I gathered from my research on the internet. If you need any further details please let me know and I have attached some pictures for reference. Below is what PCSX2's logfile says after I close Tekken Tag Tournament:
