i've recently tried to run a iso on pcsx2 0.9.8 and i keep on getting a message that says "Gs plugin failed to load" anyone know how to fix the problem?

In order to help you further with your problem, please make sure the following are all provided.

• Your hardware specs - CPU, Graphics Card, Memory, Operating System.
• Any non default settings you are using.
  

Thank You.

ok i have that on my cpu then what? p.s thanks for the help

No, I mean, you need to tell us your PC specifications and any settings modified from default values while configuring your PCSX2...

So, we can identify your problem easily...

PC specs should have nothing to do with the plugin failing to load...

Did you change any of the GS settings? If so, try to revert them to defaults. If needed, try reinstalling PCSX2.

tried updating directx ?

PC Specs might affect GSDX. What if there is a computer that does not support SSE2.

First, Update DirectX From here :
DirectX Redistributable (June 2010)

If you have updated DirectX from the Link that GSDX Gives, it might not work and may ask again. Try downloading this one (if you haven't)

Then, which GSDX hae you set up in the configuration. See your Computer's x86 Features as reported by PCSX2 Log, and choose your GSDX Accordingly. (Best: Select SSE2 for time being)

Also, try using the Latest SVN :- PCSX2 SVN
