HELP! New User/Install Repeated Crashing

[dr emulator (madmax)]

The installer version puts files both in C:\Program files\ and C:\My Documents\

But even that Emu CR thing is a stand alone build(I think), I don't think OP ran the installer. I could be wrong though.

yep he said in post 1 that he used the installer
maybe he's importing the settings from the installer when he sets up the new builds

it's a shame he couldn't capture what's happening as he starts the setup then we all could see what's going on

another thought: it might be related to what antivirus software your using and it's permissions, i remember having problems with windows xp64 although it's dought-ful

anyways Quizblog, look for the files in your drive, in the places Blyss Sarania has pointed to, and delete them, then start again.

but before you do click on the pcsx2 exe, try removing all dll's beginning with d from your plugin folder except the DEV9ghzdrk.dll ,then remove that and put in DEV9ghzdrk-r5805.dll and so on
remembering each time to change the emulator plug in settings to the dll that's left, hopefully it then should work

i'm pretty sure now that your problem has nothing to do with win 7 64 or direct x or your Visual C redists

As you can see from the emulog of a working boot, dev9 is the last thing that loads before the boot:

Are you sure your bios dump is good? I'm reaching here but who knows.

For testing purposes, i tried a different version of the bios, i believe the launch one, and it made no difference. I could believe that one dump was faulty but not several.

I see that the executable loads some memory card stuff after dev9, i will try messing with that. maybe that's my hangup.

When "DEV9ghzdrk-r5805" is the only DEV9 DLL is isnt recognized by the executable.

Once the program loads I am using all default settings, with the exception of disabling all speed hacks, and changing to a 16:9 ration in the GS Window

[Blyss Sarania]

You're showing Dev 9 null set, but also showing you deleted dev9null
???

Holy Mother of Christ. It launch's on OpenGL graphics.

[Blyss Sarania]

Well... then directx is your problem.

I'm sure I asked this before, but is everything up to date?

OpenGL is waaaay behind the directx rendered in terms of compatibility.

I will triple check, but i am sure its good. I'm rather clueless at the moment.

I have 3 monitors and two video cards. I wonder if this could be an issue.

[Blyss Sarania]

Yes. It certainly could.

Disable or unplug all but one monitor, and disable any sli/crossfire.
