New, but getting error no matter what

[eSilence]

Hey guys. I've been looking through the guides and FAQs, hoping I could figure this out on my own. I guess I can't.

When i start up PCSX2 0.9.6, it tells me it needs to be configured. I configure it, as per the guide, but when I hit Ok, it tells me something about bad allocation, and posts everything in the emulog.txt

Here's what's in there:
PCSX2 0.9.6 - compiled on Feb 27 2009

NOTE: I can overclock the CPU to 2.5 GHz each, and this is on Vista 64 bit with 4 gigs of RAM, and a 9800 GS graphics card.

2 things, first is make sure you update your plugins, not just the main exe. Also run it as administrator

[eSilence]

I do run it as an admin, and can you give me a list of what plugins to use? I'll get them myself, just a list of general stuff to run most games.

(Actually looking to run Zone of the Enders 1 and 2, Armored Core, and Capcom vs Marvel 2)

[Bositman]

You should wipe your plugin directory and use the plugins from the 0.9.6 pack only,downloaded from our site. The console reports several very outdated plugins that could be causing problems

Alright. That worked, thanks, Bositman. But I popped in my Marvel vs Capcom 2 DVD game into my DVD drive, and it crashes. Here's the emulog.txt:

Have you updated your directx with the web installer ?

[eSilence]

Yup. I got Marvel Vs Capcom 2 to work, just the sprites and the animation look a bit choppy. Any idea what would cause that?

[Bositman]

Filtering in gsdx or a resolution other than native in GSdx again..if you're talking about pixelated characters etc,that's how the game actually looks

Does anyone know if Zone of the Enders 2: The Second Runner would work with PCSX2 0.9.6 and my setup? I don't wanna spend 20 bucks on it and it doesn't work.

Setup:
Intel Centrino 2 @2.26 GHz each, OC to 2.5 Ghz.
nVidia 9800 GS Graphics Card with 512 MB of RAM.
4 GB of Dual Channel RAM

Yeah, I got ZoE2:TSR to work, but the sound is lagging. I played with some settings, and now the sound -and- video lag. Anyway someone could help me?
